Anthony Edwards, the Minnesota Timberwolves guard, has been ordered to pay $14,000 per month in child support to his ex, Alexandria Desroches, for a 3-year-old son he has never met. This revelation comes as the latest chapter in Edwards' life off the court, which seems to have more than its fair share of drama. The amount was determined based on Edwards' monthly income of nearly $4.8 million. In addition to child support, the judge ordered Edwards to take out a life insurance policy worth around $2.6 million with Desroches named as the primary beneficiary. Edwards is also required to pay Desroches' legal fees totaling more than $21,000. Edwards admitted under oath that he never met his son in person and is not seeking to have any parenting time with the kid. Edwards, 25, was the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft and signed a 5-year, $244.6 million contract extension with the Timberwolves before the 2023-24 season. He reportedly makes another $23 million per year in lucrative endorsement deals with Adidas, Prada, and Sprite, among others. Edwards' personal life is complex, with multiple child support payments. He pays $3,000 per month in child support to another ex, Ayesha Howard, with whom he has a 2-year-old daughter. He also has a child with another ex, Daja Carlyle - a daughter born in September 2023. Edwards married his longtime fiancée, Shannon Jackson, in July, and the couple has a daughter who was born in March 2024. There's a chance Edwards' next contract could make him the highest-paid player in NBA history. If Edwards earns All-NBA honors in 2026-27, he'll be eligible to sign a rare supermax extension in the summer of 2027 - what's projected to be either a 4-year, $300 million contract or a 5-year, $395 million contract. Edwards' career is on the rise, but his personal life continues to be a subject of interest. With his massive child support bill and complex personal life, Edwards is facing a challenging time off the court. Despite this, he remains one of the biggest basketball stars in the world, with a promising career ahead of him. Edwards' story is a reminder that even the most successful athletes can face personal challenges and that their lives are not always as perfect as they seem on the court.
