JuJu Watkins, Lucy Olsen, Hannah Hidalgo & NCAAB stars pick dream Thanksgiving guests feat LeBron James, Steph Curry, Sue Bird & more

Women's college basketball stars Lucy Olsen, JuJu Watkins, Hannah Hidalgo, Kiki Iriafen, Hannah Stuelke and others collaborated for the latest Big Ten Conference's Instagram video. More than 25 athletes from the conference were asked about the dream celebrity they would want to invite as a guest on Thanksgiving.

USC stars JuJu Watkins and Kiki Iriafen opened by choosing Will Ferrell and Michael B. Jordan as LeBron James, Stephen Curry, Michael Jackson and Sue Bird carried most of the weight.

"These would be some fun guests 🤣 happy Thanksgiving to all of our #b1gwbball fans! 🦃🍠🍁," the post read.

Games around Thanksgiving are one of the biggest games in the college basketball circuit in terms of spectatorship. While stars like Moriah Murray and Grace VanSlooten did not suit up on this year's fourth Thursday of November, Jaloni Cambridge and Lucy Olsen put on a show.

The action continues on Friday when Elina Aarnisalo, JuJu Watkins, Sydney Barker, Delaney Gibb, Hailey Van Lith and others take on the floor. UCLA, UNC, Buckeyes, TCU, Notre Dame, USC, South Carolina and Texas are some of the top teams to be featured within the 50+ scheduled games.

The biggest contest of the night will begin at 5:00 pm (ET) when No. 3 Notre Dame plays No. 17 Horned Frogs.

LeBron James and Lindsay Gottlieb speak on JuJu Watkins' talent

In a recent interview with the Orange County Register’s Luca Evans, USC Trojans’ Lindsay Gottlieb reflected on JuJu Watkins’ high ceiling. She claimed that other than the WNBA, she envisions the guard getting to a level above and someday owning a franchise.

"I’m a crazy kind of thinker, too," Gottlieb said. "I want (Watkins) to own something one day. Not just play in the WNBA – own a team."

Moreover, LeBron James also touched on Watkins’ potential in an interview with ESPN earlier this month, praising her skillset and drive.

"She's already a star," James said. "The way she plays the game, how fierce of a competitor she is, what she represents...It's everybody's dream to be able to play with that passion, to be able to shoot the ball, rebound the ball, push the ball, handle the ball. And she wants to win. Everybody can gravitate toward that."

USC Trojans bounced back from Saturday’s loss against Notre Dame by defeating Seton Hall (84-51) on Wednesday. JuJu Watkins led the way with 20 points and seven rebounds.
