Paul John Anthony (January 23, 1924 – May 21, 1993) was an American professional basketball player.[1][2] He played for the Tri-Cities Blackhawks in the National Basketball League for one game in each of the 1946–47 and 1947–48 seasons.[1][3] Due to the unique status of the first season of the Tri-Cities Blackhawks as a team, Anthony would be one of nine players from the team's inaugural season to only play for the Blackhawks during that same season as opposed to either also or only playing for the Buffalo Bisons precursor team from 1946 as well.[4][5] He competed in several other leagues as well.
