NBA Star Anthony Edwards Sued By Ex Ally D. Over Child Support for 1-Year-Old Son

NBA star Anthony Edwards was hit with a paternity lawsuit by his ex Alexandria Descroches in New York, over a week before he filed his own suit against her, In Touch can exclusively report.

On March 13, Alexandria aka Ally D., 26, filed a petition, obtained by In Touch, against Anthony, 23. In the filing, Ally said she had a son, born in 2023, with the Minnesota Timberwolves star.

She told the court that Anthony’s income came from the National Basketball Association.

As In Touch first reported, the NBA star filed his own paternity and support case in Georgia on March 21, several days after Ally filed her case in New York.

In his petition, Anthony noted that Ally lived in New York with their child. His lawyer claimed the child was “conceived and born in Georgia” and “all interactions between [Anthony] and [Alexandria] took place in Georgia.”

The NBA star said Ally only moved to New York a few months before he filed his case.

Ally filed a motion to dismiss Anthony’s case in Georgia. She said their son was born in Georgia.

In her filing, Ally said she moved with her son to New York in February 2024, “where they have since continuously resided.”

Ally said Anthony’s case should not have been filed in Georgia because “the child had not resided in Georgia for at least six consecutive months, and [Ally] and child had been residing in New York for over a year.”

“All interactions between [Anthony] and [Ally] did not take place in Georgia. [Anthony] and [Ally] had interactions in Minnesota during the time of conception when [Anthony] flew [Ally] out there to be with him.”

Her lawyer added, “Here, the child, A.D., was born on October 23, 2023, and moved to New York with [Ally] in February 2024. As of the filing of this Georgia action, the child had not lived in Georgia for six consecutive months, nor was Georgia the home state at any relevant time. Thus, Georgia does not qualify as the home state.”

“There is no evidence that the child was conceived in Georgia — in fact, the facts suggest that conception likely occurred while [Anthony] was flying [Ally] to and from Minnesota,” the response added.

Ally demanded the case be heard in New York and not Georgia. She attached her New York complaint as an exhibit to her filing.

Earlier this month, Ally, along with her New York-based lawyer, Al Hedayati, Esq. of the Hedayati Law Group, P.C., spoke to In Touch about the ongoing court battle.

Ally said she met Anthony in 2020.

She claimed after she told him about the pregnancy, he told her, “Don’t be messy.” She said she kept the pregnancy quiet for months. Ally also accused Anthony of not meeting their 1-year-old despite her efforts.

Her attorney Mr. Hedayati told In Touch, “She is raising a child as a single mother and has an open-door policy for [Anthony] to see the child.”

Ally said she had a job and plans to go to school, and was not trying to live off Anthony.

As In Touch first reported, Anthony is in the middle of a legal battle with his other ex Ayesha Howard over child support for their daughter, Aubri Summers Howard, born in October 2024.
