After receiving a pass from Julius Randle from the top of the key, Edwards drove to the basket and blew past Sixers' Guerschon Yabusele. Edwards slammed the ball with authority despite being met at the rim by 6-foot-10 rookie center Adem Bona.

Several fans referenced the three-time NBA All-Star's ongoing "child support payments" issue with his ex, Ayesha Howard. Several reports emerged earlier this week on X that Edwards allegedly wanted to pay 18 years' worth of child support amounting to a little over $1 million.

Anthony Edwards' ex, Ayesha Howard, denies rumors of the Wolves star's reported terms

On Wednesday, The Shade Room shared Howard's comments on Instagram:

"There are no court documents, motions or proceedings that have occurred, nor have I been offered or agreed to such terms," Howard told The Shade Room.

Anthony Edwards and Howard welcomed their child, Aubri, in October. Edwards' paternity was confirmed in December, but he decided not to seek custody of the child. Several lawsuits have been filed, and the couple awaits the court decision on how much child support Edwards needs to pay.
