The Montréal Alliance is proud to announce the signing of forward Anthony Walker for the 2025 Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) season. The 6’9” Baltimore native joins the Alliance after an impressive 2024-25 campaign with Beroe in Bulgaria’s top league, where he has averaged 22.0 points and 7.8 rebounds per game. 

“Anthony brings valuable size and versatility to our roster,” said Joel Anthony, General Manager and co-owner of the Alliance. “His NCAA Tournament experience and proven ability to contribute on both ends of the floor make him an excellent addition as we look to strengthen our frontcourt for the upcoming season.”

Walker arrives in Montréal with an impressive basketball résumé, having played four seasons with the Miami Hurricanes, where he reached the Elite Eight in 2022 and the Final Four in 2023. He spent his fifth collegiate season at Indiana University, where he averaged 5.1 points and 2.3 rebounds while shooting a career-best 48.3% from the field and 75.0% from the free-throw line. 

Following his collegiate career, Walker has elevated his game to new heights in Europe with Beroe, nearly tripling his scoring average from his college days while developing into a reliable offensive threat. 

Known for his infectious positivity and communication skills, Walker earned praise from Indiana head coach Mike Woodson: “We could not be more proud of Anthony. He is a great kid, a hard worker, and a really good athlete. We look forward to following him during this next step of his basketball career. He will be a great addition to Montréal and we wish nothing but the best for Walk.”

“What attracted me to the Alliance was their commitment to building a winning culture,” said Walker. “I’ve heard amazing things about the passionate fanbase in Montréal and can’t wait to play in front of them at Verdun Auditorium.”

The upcoming 2025 season will be the longest in CEBL history with each team playing 24 regular season games, including 12 home contests for the Alliance at the Verdun Auditorium. The Alliance will play its home opener on May 18 against the Brampton Honey Badgers. Fans can mark their calendars for the 2025 Championship Weekend which will take place in Winnipeg at the Canada Life Centre from August 21-24.
