A Massive NBA Contract
Edwards’ financial success has been a major point in the case. In 2023, the Timberwolves franchise cornerstone signed a five-year contract worth more than $200 million, making him one of the league’s highest-paid young stars.
Despite his substantial earnings, the Georgia court calculated child support under the state’s guidelines, resulting in the monthly payment of $3,222.
California Case Faces Setback
During the proceedings, Edwards’ legal team argued that Howard repeatedly delayed the litigation while simultaneously pursuing the California case. His attorneys also requested that the court prevent additional motions from being filed in California after the Georgia case was resolved.
