Tre Donaldson enters NCAA transfer portal after Cadeau's addition

Tre Donaldson, Michigan's starting point guard, has entered the NCAA transfer portal just one day after the Wolverines secured transfer guard Elliot Cadeau from North Carolina. Donaldson, who had a significant impact during his lone season at Michigan, averaged 11.3 points and 4.1 assists while starting all 37 games. His departure marks a challenge for Michigan as he becomes the fourth player from the team's core rotation to leave, joining others who have exhausted their eligibility. Donaldson's clutch performances, especially in the Big Ten Tournament, made him a fan favorite, but the addition of Cadeau, a more ball-dominant player, likely influenced his decision to seek new opportunities. After a season that ended with a Sweet Sixteen loss to Auburn, Donaldson's exit leaves Michigan in need of a new starting point guard. His departure reflects the shifting dynamics within the team as it prepares for the upcoming season.
