Thank you for displaying an itense amount of ignorance about the subject matter. Sun Wukong comes from a book called 'journey to the west', one of the four 'great' pieces of chinese literature published in 1590. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journey_to_the_West

League of Legends was forced to make a character in homage of chinese culture after they were bought out by a chinese company, the company itself doesn't come up with very many of its own ideas at all.

Being as Monty Oum is an asian, the personnage of the monkey king would likely be *very* familiar to him and not at all inspired by a crappy game like league of legends. In fact if you read the character bios you'll learn that they draw inspiration from all sorts of cultures, religions, ethnicities, myths and fairy tales.
