Minnesota Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards earns a staggering $3,364,911 in gross monthly income, according to court documents obtained by TMZ from an ongoing child support dispute.
The financial disclosure emerged from legal proceedings involving Edwards and his former partner, Alexandria Desroches, who reportedly earns approximately $1,016 per month. The documents reveal Edwards currently pays around $12,500 monthly in child support to Desroches for their child, who was born in October 2023.
The substantial monthly income stems from Edwards' lucrative contract with the Timberwolves. In 2023, the NBA player signed a five-year deal worth up to $260 million, securing his financial future while establishing himself as a central figure in Minnesota's basketball landscape.
The case with Desroches represents only one of two concurrent child support battles Edwards currently faces. The Timberwolves star is simultaneously engaged in separate legal proceedings with another former partner, Ayesha Howard, over child support obligations.
The dual legal proceedings highlight the complex personal circumstances surrounding one of Minnesota's most prominent professional athletes. While Edwards' on-court performance continues to draw attention from Timberwolves fans, these court filings provide a rare glimpse into the financial realities of elite NBA players and the legal obligations that can accompany their substantial earnings.
The stark income disparity documented in the court filings—with Edwards earning more than 3,300 times Desroches' reported monthly income—underscores the financial imbalances often present in such legal disputes involving professional athletes. The $12,500 monthly child support payment represents less than one percent of Edwards' disclosed gross monthly income.
