Wizards All-Star John Wall undergoes surgery on both knees

Wizards point guard John Wall underwent two medical procedures Thursday to repair his bothersome knees that caused him to miss the final five games of the regular season.

Wall's first surgery was to excise calcific deposits in his left patella tendon, the team announced. The three-time All-Star also underwent an arthroscopic lavage on his right knee to remove loose bodies.
