Megan Thee Stallion shared post-Turkey Day that she had the humble task of preparing Thanksgiving dinner for her boyfriend Klay Thompson<\/a> and his legendary basketball family.<\/p>\n

The three-time Grammy winner posted the experience to social media<\/a> on Black Friday, in which the Dallas Mavericks<\/a> forward rated her meal a perfect 10 out of 10.<\/p>\n

Klay Thompson\u2019s father, Los Angeles Lakers<\/a> legend Mychal Thompson, broke the news on an ESPN radio show<\/a>. He said Meg would be cooking and added, \u201cAll Black women are good cooks.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Thompson definitely said, \u2018I could have easily have owned my own restaurant,’\u201d Meg said. \u201cBut, I didn\u2019t want to record him saying it because I was trying to be respectful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Megan Thee Stallion Wants to Show That \u2018I Really Love Their Son\u2019<\/p>\n

\u201cI was really nervous cause I was like dang I\u2019m really finna cook for my man and his whole family,\u201d Meg said in the Instagram post<\/a>. \u201cI hope they love this because I got to show them that I really love their son.\u201d<\/p>\n

The rapper and songwriter said for the record, no one is competing with her homemade barbecue baked beans. \u201cAin\u2019t nobody seeing me on barbecue baked beans,\u201d she said. \u201cIf you want to have a conversation then let me know because I\u2019m sure I win.\u201d<\/p>\n

The conclusion of the video shows a beautifully set Thanksgiving dinner table overlooking the Pacific Ocean.<\/p>\n

The Couple Have Been Dating Since July 2025<\/p>\n

Thompson and Meg, born Megan Pete, revealed their relationship in discreet social media posts in early July, which was confirmed<\/a> when they attended a gala together in New York City on July 16.<\/p>\n

The two reportedly purchased a mansion together last month and Meg is often spotted at Mavs games next to Thompson\u2019s mom, Julie.<\/p>\n

Klay Thompson, Part of Storied \u2018Splash Brothers,\u2019 Starts Over in Texas<\/p>\n

Thompson, now 35, is no longer a part of the \u201cSplash Brothers\u201d in Golden State after he was traded to the Mavs in 2024. He then moved to the 30-year-old\u2019s native Texas.<\/p>\n

The son of two successful athletes, Thompson won four championships with the Warriors<\/a> and was a key part in the legendary dynasty in San Francisco that dominated the NBA in recent years. He also won a gold medal for Team USA at the 2016 Olympics.<\/p>\n

He had a career altering knee injury during the NBA<\/a> Finals in 2019 and his production has not quite been the same ever since. After the Warriors departed from several players (except Steph Curry<\/a> and Draymond Green<\/a>), Thompson was next to be moved. He then agreed on a $50 million deal with the Mavs.<\/p>\n

This year, the Mavs (5-14) are considered one of the worst teams in the NBA. Thompson is averaging 10.3 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists, on 21.6 minutes a game.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, the team fired general manager Nico Harrison, who orchestrated the the trade that sent Luka Don\u010di\u0107<\/a> to the Lakers. Somehow, the Mavs won the draft lottery, though, and picked Duke\u2019s Cooper Flagg<\/a> with the No. 1 overall pick.<\/p>\n
