Benny Charles "B. J." Anthony Jr. (born 20 July 1988) is a New Zealand professional basketball player for the Wellington Saints of the New Zealand National Basketball League (NZNBL). He also holds British nationality through his mother, making him a non-restricted player in Europe.
In 2006 and 2008, Anthony played in the Conference Basketball League (CBL) for the Waitakere Rangers and Northside, respectively. He also began his New Zealand NBL career in 2008 when he joined the Harbour Heat. He later played in Germany during the 2008–09 season before returning to the Heat for the 2009 season.
Anthony had another stint in Germany during the 2009–10 season, but departed the club mid-season. He again played for the Harbour Heat during the 2010 New Zealand NBL season.
In June 2010, Anthony signed with the New Zealand Breakers as a development player for the 2010–11 NBL season. In February 2011, he signed with the Waikato Pistons for the 2011 New Zealand NBL season.
Anthony returned to the New Zealand Breakers as a full-time contracted player for the 2011–12 NBL season. In October 2011, Anthony signed with the Otago Nuggets for the 2012 New Zealand NBL season. However, due to an injury sustained while playing for the Breakers, Anthony missed the entire 2012 season.
In May 2012, Anthony was released by the Breakers following a troubled 2011–12 season.
