Neo is very average. How in the world is he going to the NBA?

Has the tools and upside.

You can’t question Neo’s potential because “experts” say different.
If Neo is a lottery pick, some NBA GM needs to lose their job. I love that Neo is a Hokie but I hate all the drivel about him being a lottery pick. Stay another year Neo.

Well, the good news is that this team plays pretty well without him. So . .
. . . his loss next year shouldn't be insurmountable.

6’9” guard and apparently has measurables they are looking for.

But i don't see him handling the rock efficiently in the NBA right now. I'm sure he's a better shooter than what he's showing now. Young kid in a new country. A lot going on but I have to agree with the OP at this moment. ** Edited by crazylane at 1/21/2026, 11:32:01 PM

It will take a few years for sure.
He’s not what most folks consider NBA caliber now but the pros seem to think he’s got the intangibles they are looking for and will eventually be good at that level.

Shooting must not be one of them.

They probably figure it can be fixed.
