defense-first guard with legit 94-foot edge
Keira Neal’s calling card is still her defense: North Texas recruited her as an elite perimeter stopper who can guard end-to-end, and that identity has followed her through college. In her North Texas minutes, she showed a low-usage, glue-guy profile with flashes as a rebounder and creator, but her value is bigger than the box score—toughness, energy, and willingness to do the dirty work. The caution flag is availability, since her college path has included an ACL injury and limited game action, so she fits best for a team that needs disruption, depth, and a relentless competitor.
