Montreal Alliance

The Montreal Alliance (French: Alliance de Montréal) are a Canadian professional basketball team based in Montreal, Quebec, Canada founded in 2021. They compete in the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) and play their home games at the Verdun Auditorium. The Montreal Alliance’s mascot is called “Alli-Oop”.

Most recently, the Montreal Jazz played its only season in the National Basketball League of Canada in the 2012–13 season. The team did not play in the 2013–14 NBL Canada season after failing to secure a new ownership group.

In February 2021, it was first announced that a Montreal team would join the CEBL in 2022. On October 27, 2021, the team name and branding was revealed. Joel Anthony was named the inaugural general manager of the Alliance the next month. The Montréal Alliance announced on Tuesday, March 8, 2022, that Vincent Lavandier had been named the first head coach of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) expansion franchise.

On January 20, 2025, the Alliance were purchased from the CEBL by Alli–Oop Investments, a group led by General Manager Joel Anthony and includes Weeve CEO and founder Léo Bouisson, and pharmacy owner Ian-Philip Paul-Hus. The team was owned by the CEBL prior to the announcement and becomes the 7th privately owned team in the CEBL.

On May 23, 2025, the Montreal Alliance will host the Ottawa Blackjacks in a CEBL game outdoors at IGA Stadium. According to the league, "It will be the first professional five-on-five basketball game held outdoors in Canadian history."
