Anthony Edwards is reportedly taking a woman to court to determine if she is the mother of his child.
Edwards, a star for the Minnesota Timberwolves who is said to have fathered at least three children, wants the court to require genetic testing, according to Page Six, which obtained the documents filed in Georgia.
The woman’s name is Ayesha Howard, who also shares a child with rapper Lil Baby.
“If genetic testing shows that petitioner is the father, petitioner seeks an order establishing the paternity of the minor child,” the documents said.
Edwards’ petition also concerns child support.
