If the word “unbothered” was a person, Anthony Edwards could likely fit the description! A surfaced video has social media in TEARS after spectators at an NBA game chose an interesting way to distract him on the court: “child support” chants. For context, the pro athlete has been making headlines for the last few months for his family-related court cases, namely the one with Ayesha Howard.

Video Shows Anthony Edwards’ Reaction To “Child Support” Chants
For context, Ayesha and Anthony share an infant daughter named Aubri Summer. Howard is also mother to a boy named Jason, whom she co-parents with rapper Lil Baby. In December, paternity testing, at Edwards’ request, established him as Aubri’s dad. Since then, court documents have stated the NBA player’s desire to only be involved in his daughter’s life from a financial standpoint. Other terms, such as custody or visitation, aren’t a priority for him.
And he’s carrying the same energy for another child court case with his ex-girlfriend, Alexandria Desroches. In March, he filed a paternity suit against her to establish himself as Amir’s father and define child support. He did not express interest in custody or visitation rights.
While all of THAT is a part of Anthony’s private life, Memphis Grizzlies fans clocked his tea on Thursday (April 10). At one point in the game, the Minnesota Timberwolves player had to step to the free-throw line. As he prepared to shoot, several people in the crowd started yelling, “Child support.” In a circulating video of the moment, Anthony Edwards smiled. However, it’s unclear if the facial expression had anything to do with the chanting! Like his child support cases, Anthony has not publicly commented on the heckling video.
