Anthony Edwards Accuses Baby Mama of 'Trapping' Him with Pregnancy Plan Using Ovulation Tracker
In a paternity and child support case that grows more contentious by the week, Minnesota Timberwolves phenom Anthony Edwards is going full legal blast on his ex-girlfriend Ayesha Howard. In court documents filed recently, Edwards accuses Howard of manipulative behavior and attempting to deceive the court by employing an ovulation tracker as a tool to secure financial assistance. The 22-year-old basketball phenom is now requesting a judge to sanction Howard for what he describes as blatant and troubling abuse of the judicial system. The controversy surrounding Howard is his attempt to reopen a child support case in California despite a previous ruling that the state has no jurisdiction over the case. Edwards and his lawyers are responding to Howard's motion to rehear a case already decided, which directed California to have no standing in their child support case. Edwards says Howard's attempt to transfer the case to another state is merely strategic forum shopping, a maneuver intended to obtain a more favorable monetary ruling. His attorneys allege there is neither factual nor legal basis for California to be a part of the case. Edwards asserts that he and Howard did not have a sexual relationship within California and also claims she failed to present credible evidence of domicile there. Edwards' attorney stated that she has no signed lease, no utility bills, and no reliable evidence that she lives or works in California. Her only contacts with the state are part of a bad-faith scheme to manipulate the system and deceive the court into getting a California child support order. The judge has already rejected Howard's claim of jurisdiction, but her latest motion appears to be an ambitious attempt to reverse the decision and transfer the case under California law, which allows for far more generous child support determinations. The most inflammatory part of Edwards' recent lawsuit filing is perhaps his reply to Howard's filing of an ovulation calendar. The file, which was filed in the hope of substantiating her allegations regarding the timing of conception, has instead become the centerpiece of Edwards' assertion that Howard's pregnancy was always money-motivated. His attorneys blame her for having a premeditated plan to become pregnant with the soon-to-be basketball sensation. The filing deems her actions a premeditated money maneuver and states that using the tracker paints a very ominous picture of her motives. This is not some woman who was caught off her guard with an unexpected pregnancy, Edwards' attorney contended. This is a woman who planned out her fertility cycle meticulously and chose her partner for his fame and money-making potential. It raises the unsettling questions about Ayesha's motives and her believability. According to Edwards, Howard's use of the ovulation tracker as evidence is manipulative and reflective of a broader trend of unethical and dishonest practices. In his brief, Edwards doesn't play nice. He states Howard is simply re-asserting issues that have already been resolved and attempting to receive a different outcome by making the same arguments in different wording. The parties presented their case, and the court ruled, according to the brief. Ayesha was unhappy with the outcome and now attempts to get a second bite at the apple. Edwards' lawyers argue that this isn't just a case of one paternity ruling or one motion for child support. It is a case of setting a precedent as to what the court system will tolerate regarding conduct. They argue that Howard is abusing the court process, wasting judicial time, and promoting a tale based on misinformation. Frustrated with what he sees as ongoing legal posturing and deliberate deceit, Edwards is now seeking the court to sanction Howard officially. Her conduct is a blatant and sustained misuse of the judicial process, his lawyers claim, that has every intention of raking in further money from the situation. If awarded, the sanction request would be extremely costly and legally damaging for Howard. Sanctions are made by the court only when the court finds one of the litigants in bad faith, providing false or irrelevant information, or willfully misleading the court. Edwards has now laid all such charges at Howard's feet. To date, the judge has not ruled on the motion for sanctions. However, the fact that the motion was requested in the first place suggests that this case is headed into much nastier and more adversarial waters. What began as a routine disagreement about child support has evolved into an outright legal soap opera involving personal charges, jurisdictional wars, and accusations of financial scheming. Edwards, whose career was thriving with the Minnesota Timberwolves and who last week was one of the faces of Team USA Basketball, is now in the middle of an open and highly personal court battle. Howard has not made any public comments regarding the latest charges, including the assertion that her pregnancy was part of a premeditated money-making scheme. She also hasn't responded to Edwards' claim that her connection to California is staged for legal purposes. With the judge yet to pass judgment on the motion for sanctions, the public is glued to this unfolding spectacle, which continues to blur the line between celebrity trial headlines and profoundly intimate grievances. Tune in, for if this petition is anything to judge by, the next episode of this soap opera will be full of theatrics.

Anthony Edwards Accuses Ayesha Howard of ‘Calculated Plan' to Conceive Child With Him, Demands Sanctions
NBA star Anthony Edwards asked a judge to sanction his ex Ayesha Howard for her 'manipulative and unjustifiable conduct,' In Touch can exclusively report. On Tuesday, May 6, Anthony, 23, filed a response, obtained by In Touch, to Ayesha's recent plea with the court to reconsider the order which determined child support would not be set in California. The Minnesota Timberwolves star said the court previously ruled he had no ties to California. He said the court determined he did not have sexual intercourse with Ayesha, 37, in the state. Anthony's lawyer added, 'Ayesha has failed to provide any evidence demonstrating that she pays utilities in California, rents a home in California, has signed a lease in California or had any connection to California.' Anthony's attorney continued, 'Her only contacts with the state are in connection with her bad faith attempt to game the system and mislead the Court to obtain a California child support order." His lawyer added, "It is clear that the conception of the minor child was a planned-out scheme for Ayesha, who recently attached documentation demonstrating that she was tracking her ovulation around the time that she became pregnant.' He added, 'This was a clearly planned financial decision for Ayesha. The parties' presented their arguments regarding jurisdiction as it relates to child support and the Court made findings in support of its ruling. Ayesha, unhappy with the outcome, now attempts to get a second bite at the apple. Her manipulative and unjustifiable conduct should not be condoned.' 'Ayesha's motion blatantly disregards this fundamental requirement, instead recycling previously rejected arguments while submitting a collection of documents that not only fail to support her position but actively contradict it,' his lawyer argued. Anthony said Ayesha 'oddly submitted as evidence' her ovulation tracker. He said the tracker did not establish jurisdiction but rather 'suggests a calculated plan to conceive a child with Anthony, raising disturbing questions about Ayesha's motives.' The NBA star asked that Ayesha be sanctioned for her conduct. A judge has yet to rule. Ayesha previously told In Touch, 'My daughter Aubri deserves a future built on honesty and integrity not decisions clouded by errors or injustices." As In Touch previously reported, Ayesha and Anthony are the parents to a daughter named Aubri Summer Howard, born in October 2024. The NBA star filed a paternity and child support case in Georgia, where he claimed Ayesha and him lived. Ayesha filed a separate case in California claiming she moved before Aubri was born. A DNA test was done in December 2024, which showed Anthony was the father. Anthony demanded the California case be thrown out. He accused Ayesha of filing her case in Los Angeles in an attempt to score a higher child support award. Anthony alleged Ayesha worked at the Atlanta strip club Magic City until she became pregnant in early 2024. Ayesha denied the claims. She was adamant that California is where she lives. The judge ended up siding with the NBA star and ordered child support would not be set in L.A. As In Touch first reported, last month, Ayesha pleaded with the court to rethink the decision. She submitted a series of evidence to back up her position. In her filing, Ayesha said, 'Throughout these proceedings, Mr. Edwards and his legal team have not only misrepresented his own connections but have also made false and damaging statements about me, in what appears to be an effort to discredit my character.' She said, 'One such claim was that I worked at Magic City in Atlanta until 2024. This is false. I have obtained documentation from the Atlanta Police Department showing that my last business license with that establishment expired in 2018 — seven years ago. I have been forthcoming in stating that I have not worked in Georgia for over a decade, and the evidence supports this statement.' As In Touch first reported, as part of the legal battle, Ayesha submitted alleged texts from Anthony after she told him she was pregnant. In one alleged text, Ayesha wrote, 'I'm pregnant … wanted to tell you in person but you gave me no other choice. We probably should have kept it cordial but we're here now.' In the same alleged conversation, Anthony allegedly wrote back, 'Ok lol. Get da abortion lol.' As In Touch first reported, Anthony filed a declaration in the court battle stating he has no desire for custody or visitation of Aubri. He told the court, '[Ayesha] and I have one minor child together, Aubri Summer Howard. Paternity was recently established through DNA testing. I am not seeking child custody or visitation of Aubri. Therefore, the only issues to be resolved are financial in nature.' The child support for Aubri has yet to be set by a judge.
