Montreal Alliance Sign Guard Anthony Maxwell as Development Player

Montreal, QC — The Montreal Alliance of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) announced today the signing of Montreal native Anthony Maxwell.

The 6-foot-1 guard joins the Alliance after competing at the NCAA Division I, junior college, and U SPORTS levels, bringing speed, shot creation, and offensive versatility to Montreal’s backcourt.

“Anthony is a player who competes hard on the defensive end and fits the identity we want to build as a team,” said Co-Owner and General Manager Joel Anthony. “Being from Montreal, he understands the pride that comes with representing this city, and we’re excited to see him continue to grow within our organization.”

Maxwell most recently played for the Concordia Stingers during the 2025-26 season, where he emerged as an impactful offensive contributor in the RSEQ conference. Appearing in 23 games, he averaged 7.7 points and 4.3 rebounds while showcasing his ability to contribute offensively in both starting and reserve roles.

Throughout the season, Maxwell delivered several strong performances, including 17 points on 7-of-9 shooting against Ottawa, 15 points against Laval, and 10 points and seven rebounds in a victory over Carleton. Known for his quickness, shifty handle, and ability to get to his spots in the mid-range area, Maxwell consistently provided offensive production for the Stingers.

Prior to joining Concordia, Maxwell competed at UMass Lowell during the 2023-24 NCAA Division I season before continuing his collegiate career at Gulf Coast State College in 2024-25. Across each stop, he continued to develop as an offensive-minded guard capable of creating off the dribble and attacking opposing defenses.

A native of Lachine, Maxwell developed through Montreal’s basketball scene, including time with Brookwood Elite Basketball, a program that has also helped develop current Alliance players Quincy Guerrier and Keeshawn Barthelemy. He later attended Montreal-based Dynastie Prep, where he averaged 22 points and four assists during his senior high school season, establishing himself as one of the promising young guards to emerge from the city’s basketball community.

Maxwell now joins the Alliance as the organization continues its 2026 CEBL campaign.
