Overview
- Michigan point guard Elliot Cadeau fell ill Wednesday before the team’s departure and was taken from the bus on a stretcher to an ambulance outside the Player Development Center, with WWJ 950 video and CBS Detroit on-scene reporting documenting the removal.
- The university said doctors evaluated him and found he is fine, and he will travel to Indianapolis later Wednesday under medical supervision.
- Program officials said he may have had an allergic reaction to something he ate, and they have not confirmed the exact cause.
- Cadeau’s availability for the Final Four at Lucas Oil Stadium on Saturday is not set, with Michigan scheduled to practice in Indianapolis on Thursday and Friday.
- The junior starter averages 10.2 points and 5.8 assists for the 35-3 Wolverines, and his importance has grown after backup guard L.J. Cason’s season-ending ACL tear earlier in the season.
