INDIANAPOLIS (AP) \u2014 Michigan starting point guard Elliot Cadeau rejoined his teammates for the Final Four<\/a> and said Thursday his allergic reaction that required hospitalization a day earlier<\/a> was due to an accidental exposure to nuts.<\/p>\n

\u201cI just ate something I was allergic to,\u201d the junior said as he sat at his locker at Lucas Oil Stadium, two days before the Wolverines meet fellow No. 1 seed Arizona in the national semifinals.<\/p>\n

Coach Dusty May said Cadeau, who averages 10.2 points and 5.8 assists, is \u201cfine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Cadeau’s treatment came as his teammates were flying to the Final Four, though Cadeau said a Michigan staffer had driven him to Indianapolis to rejoin teammates ahead of Thursday’s locker-room interviews and other pregame promotional activities.<\/p>\n

Cadeau described it as \u201cjust a minor inconvenience for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI just had a little bit of hives so that\u2019s why I went to the hospital, just to prevent anything further from happening,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Detroit radio station WWJ 950 posted a video on X<\/a> on Wednesday showing a covered individual sitting upright while being wheeled out of Michigan\u2019s player development center on a gurney and loaded into an ambulance. Michigan<\/a> later confirmed it was Cadeau<\/a>, who had complained of a possible allergic reaction and received medical supervision \u201cout of an abundance of caution.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it\u2019s the worst thing that happens to us, then we\u2019re very blessed,\u201d May said Thursday. “It also just shows him how much he means to his teammates. They were very concerned, obviously, like we all would be for a reaction like that.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut just grateful that he\u2019s fine. We have great medical care, and he\u2019s back with us. Dude is a warrior. He\u2019ll be fine.\u201d<\/p>\n
