Thanksgiving is here, which means it's also time for hot takes about the holiday, something Indiana Fever All-Star Caitlin Clark is ready to participate in. On Thursday, the Iowa Hawkeyes asked their players and coaches about their Thanksgiving hot takes, and the video was uploaded on Instagram.

When asked, assistant coach Raina Harmon said "pumpkin pie." Afterward, she gave an emphatic thumbs down and then imitated the sound of a buzzer.

Clark acknowledged Raina in the comment section and even agreed with her.

"Facts Raina," Clark wrote.

Caitlin Clark shared her favorite and least favorite Thanksgiving food

Caitlin Clark wasn't around to share her Thanksgiving hot takes with the Iowa Women's Basketball team this year as he is now a pro. However, an old video of Clark when she was still in college has resurfaced where she talked about Thanksgiving food.

In the video, Clark shared her thoughts on her best and worst dishes.

"The best is mashed potatoes and gravy and then you just pour so much gravy on it that it overflows on your entire plate," Clark said. "The worst is ham, ham is gross. Or like cranberries, or like stuffing."

After Clark shared her opinions, two of her ex-teammates disagreed saying stuffing is the best. Afterward, one of her teammates said turkey is overrated, which prompted another player to cheer.

Meanwhile, the camera panned toward Clark who looked disappointed before saying that her teammates were weird.

Clark played her last season with Iowa in 2023-24. In her four years in Iowa, she averaged 28.4 points, 7.1 rebounds 8,2 assists and 1.5 steals.

She also racked up a number of accolades and achievements including becoming the leading scorer for Iowa. She broke and set multiple records in college and has continued to do the same in the WNBA.

In her first season as a pro, Clark scored the most points and dished the most assists by a rookie. She also set the record for most assists in a game and holds the league's single-season assist record.

Clark averaged 19.2 ppg, 5.7 rpg, 8.4 apg and 1.3 spg in her maiden season. She was named an All-Star, and she was a part of the All-WNBA first team. She was also named Rookie of the Year.
