Anthony Roberson (born February 14, 1983 in Saginaw, Michigan) is an American professional basketball player for the New York Knicks. His cousin, Terrance Roberson, played for the Charlotte Hornets in 2000. A 6'2" point guard, Roberson attended the University of Florida. He declared for the 2005 NBA Draft after his junior season, and signed with the Memphis Grizzlies in August 2005, after going undrafted. Throughout the 2005-06 NBA season, he split his time between the Grizzlies and the Arkansas RimRockers, the Grizzlies' D-League affiliate.

In October 2006 he was signed by the Golden State Warriors to be evaluated during training camp, and would appear in 20 contests in 2006-07, being waived in early January 2007.
