By Elias Eldridge • April 15, 2026
The Brampton Honey Badgers of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) announced Wednesday that Toronto-icon Superfan Nav Bhatia has joined the Brampton Honey Badgers as a Community Ambassador. Through this partnership, the organization will be working closely alongside the Superfan Nav Bhatia Foundation to inspire youth in the community. “Working as an ambassador for Canada Basketball and the Toronto Raptors has given me the opportunity to impact our youth on a global and national scale,” said Bhatia “What the Brampton Honey Badgers represent, is an opportunity to work much closer with the youth in my own backyard with the community I grew up alongside. I am looking forward to working with the Brampton Honey Badgers and launching new community initiatives with my foundation.” As the first fan honoured in the NBA Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, Nav Bhatia has quickly become a global icon for any basketball fan. You may know him as the “Toronto Raptors Superfan”, having attended every single Raptors home game besides what he was required to miss due to the COVID-19 pandemic during the 2020-21 season. After the Raptors won their first NBA Championship in 2019, Bhatia became the first fan in history to receive an official NBA Championship ring. “Words cannot fully capture the impact Nav Bhatia has had on basketball in Canada,” said Honey Badgers CEO Al Whitley. “This marks a significant milestone for the Brampton Honey Badgers. Nav’s influence on the game and his connection to communities across the GTA will help elevate our organization to new heights. We are proud to work alongside Nav and engage our community.” The first initiative, titled the ‘Badgers Bench Mob’, was launched Monday, April 13 by the Brampton Honey Badgers in conjunction with the Superfan Nav Bhatia Foundation - with Mayor Patrick Brown and Deputy Chief of Peel Regional Police Marc Andrews in attendance. Beginning during the 2026 season, and aimed to empower youth by providing them with a live professional basketball experience, community leaders are able to purchase and donate courtside tickets to youth in the community. “The Badger’s Bench Mob is a means to give our youth a feeling of ownership and camaraderie,” said Bhatia. “Nothing brings people together like sports. I have used basketball as a tool to bring people together my entire life, now with the Honey Badgers and the Bench Mob program, we can bring even more of the community together to rally and cheer on our team.” The program is very simple. You may donate two tickets for the entire season at a special price of only $1100, or two tickets to one game at only $110. The games you cannot attend are donated to youth in the community and a charitable tax receipt is issued by Kids Up Front. “This is a very exciting day for our organization,” said Honey Badgers Owner Leonard Asper. “Nav Bhatia is a Canadian icon and his contributions to the community and this sport have been inspiring and have changed so many lives for the better. Together, our shared values and commitment to the sport while creating opportunity for our youth is going to be a powerful combination. Having the opportunity to join forces with him is a true honour and we are thrilled to have him on our team.” The Brampton Honey Badgers will begin their season with two home games on Friday, May 15 and Superfan Day on Sunday, May 17 versus the Ottawa BlackJacks and Calgary Surge, respectively.

By Elias Eldridge • April 13, 2026
The Brampton Honey Badgers of the Canadian Elite Basketball League (CEBL) announced Monday that they have signed Montreal-native and University of Southern Mississippi alum Tegra Izay. Izay will be making his professional debut with the Honey Badgers this season after a six-year collegiate career spanning through the University of Southern Mississippi, Harcum Community College, and La Salle University. “The addition of Tegra gives us size and another physical presence,” said Honey Badgers General Manager and Vice President of Basketball Operations Jermaine Anderson. “He’s eager to start his professional career, and his work ethic and approach to the game align with our culture. We’re excited to welcome him to the Honey Badger family.” Most recently with the Golden Eagles, the seven-footer recorded two or more blocks in eight games and shot 59.5 percent from the field on the season while studying as a graduate student. In 2022, Izay transferred to Harcum Community College in JUCO where he averaged 8.4 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 2.4 blocks per game.

We’re excited about his growth and the edge he adds to our group." After Izay’s freshman season with La Salle University, he was awarded Atlantic 10 Commissioner’s Honour Roll, which recognizes student-athletes who achieved a combined GPA of 3.0 or higher.
