In a recent interview with SLAM, Top Chef’s Padma Lakshmi disclosed that she was a big fan of Nate’s. Here’s what she had to say.

SLAM: Do you still talk to Nate?

Padma Lakshmi: I never really talked to him; I would yell at him from my seat [laughs].

SLAM: What would you yell?

PL: I just love watching him on the court because he’s so low to the ground. He’s very fast. He doesn’t share the ball a lot. [Laughs] He’s not a sharer.
