The Montreal Alliance announced today the signing of guard Javon Freeman-Liberty, a former Toronto Raptors player and one of the NBA G League’s most dynamic two-way guards.


Freeman-Liberty brings NBA experience to Montreal after appearing in 22 games with the Toronto Raptors during the 2023–24 season, including six starts. The 6-foot-3 guard averaged 7.0 points, 3.2 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game while showcasing his athleticism, versatility, and ability to impact both ends of the floor at the highest level.


The Chicago native also established himself as a standout performer in the NBA G League. During his stint with the Raptors 905 in 2023–24, Freeman-Liberty averaged 24.0 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 4.0 assists per game, delivering multiple dominant scoring performances, including a 40-point outing against the Texas Legends (January 9, 2024).


Most recently, Freeman-Liberty competed with the Long Island Nets in the NBA G League, continuing to demonstrate his playmaking ability while averaging over 13 points per game.


Before turning professional, Freeman-Liberty starred at DePaul University, where he emerged as one of the top guards in the BIG EAST Conference. In his final collegiate season, he averaged 21.7 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game, including a 39-point performance against St. John’s (February 27, 2022).


“Any time you can add a player with high-level experience and a proven track record across multiple leagues, it raises the level of your team,” said Alliance General Manager and Co-Owner Joel Anthony. “Javon has a natural ability to score, a strong feel for the game, and the capacity to step up in big moments. Those are qualities we value and believe will fit well within our coaches’ system heading into the upcoming season.”


Throughout his professional career, Freeman-Liberty has averaged 17.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game. Now, after establishing himself as a proven scorer at every level, Freeman-Liberty brings his experience and scoring ability to Montreal for the 2026 CEBL season.
