Hawks legend Lou Williams hilariously welcomes Jonathan Kuminga to Atlanta with food take<\/a> appeared first on ClutchPoints<\/a>. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After the Golden State Warriors traded Jonathan Kuminga away to the Atlanta Hawks<\/a> in a package for Kristaps Porzingis, some reports revealed just how petty the relationship may have become<\/a> between Kuminga and Golden State. On Friday night, Lou Williams<\/a> welcomed Kuminga to his new team with a hilarious take.<\/p>\n

There was one report claiming that the Warriors informed Jonathan Kuminga<\/a> that someone in his family or group was taking too much food from the family room. Williams used that report as a way to give the 23-year-old forward a warm welcome<\/a> during Friday\u2019s episode of \u201cRun it Back.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cChandler and I have both played for the Atlanta Hawks,\u201d said Williams. \u201cThe food is amazing in the back\u2026and if you can\u2019t get your food in the back, I know a place.\u201d<\/p>\n

The place Williams knows is likely the Magic City strip club in Atlanta, as the 39-year-old former guard was famously caught visiting the establishment in 2020 to get a plate of lemon pepper wings during the COVID-19 lockdowns. That incident led to a 10-day quarantine, which also gave him the \u201cLemon Pepper Lou\u201d nickname. Additionally, the club created a menu item called the \u201cLouwill Lemon Pepper BBQ\u201d wings.<\/p>\n

So, at the very least, it doesn\u2019t appear food will be an issue for Jonathan Kuminga in Atlanta. A fresh new start with the Hawks seems to be an ideal situation for the five-year veteran. His time in Golden State seemingly ran its course, and Warriors head coach Steve Kerr even admitted<\/a> that it was difficult finding playing time for Kuminga while the team was competing for championships.<\/p>\n

Kuminga has yet to make his debut with the Hawks, as he is currently dealing with a bone bruise in his left knee. In the 20 games he has played this season with the Warriors, Jonathan Kuminga is averaging 12.1 points, 5.9 rebounds (career-high), and 2.5 assists (career-high) per game while shooting 45.4% from the floor and 32.1% from beyond the three-point line.<\/p>\n
