Anthony Edwards seeks to place child support in trust

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards has requested that a portion of his $14,000 monthly child support payments be managed by a trustee. According to court documents, Edwards expressed concern that Alexandria Desroches, the mother of his son Amir, might spend the funds on online gambling. Edwards alleges that Desroches engaged in frequent DraftKings activity throughout 2025 while simultaneously arguing that his support payments were insufficient. The filing also claims Desroches failed to disclose certain income and overstated child-related expenses.

Desroches has disputed these claims, stating that her gambling activity consisted of small bets, typically around $10, made “out of boredom.” She reported a net total of $998.20 in DraftKings activity for 2025 and stated she has since stopped using the account. In her response to the court, Desroches also raised questions regarding Edwards’ involvement in their son’s life, alleging he has not sought parenting time or met the child in person.
