Michigan's Elliot Cadeau Gets Medical Care For Allergic Reaction Before Final Four Trip

Michigan point guard Elliot Cadeau had to pump the brakes Wednesday when he alerted the medical staff about a possible allergic reaction before the team headed to Indianapolis for the Final Four. The team confirmed the situation after Detroit radio station WWJ 950 posted video showing a covered individual being wheeled out of Michigan's player development center on a gurney and loaded into a Huron Valley ambulance.

What Happened

"Before the team departed the Player Development Center today, Elliot alerted the medical staff that he may have had an allergic reaction to something that he ate," Michigan said in a statement. The doctors evaluated him and determined he was fine. But out of an abundance of caution, Cadeau received medical supervision before heading to Indianapolis later that same day to rejoin the team.

Still Making the Trip

Cadeau will be in Indy when Michigan faces Arizona on Saturday in a Final Four matchup between No. 1 seeds. The point guard is averaging 10.2 points and 5.8 assists this season and will be ready to go when the Wolverines take the court.

Championship Dreams Intact

Michigan is chasing its first national title since 1989, and Cadeau's presence will be crucial to that run. The team handled the situation by the book, getting him the medical attention he needed while making sure he could still make it to Indianapolis in time for the biggest game of the season.
