The Wizards’ playoff chances were the first casualty wrought from John Wall’s left patella stress injury, with the team foundering in his absence to a 5-28 start. The second casualty – which Wall knew would occur the moment the injury was discovered – became official on Thursday, when Philadelphia’s Jrue Holiday and Cleveland’s Kyrie Irving were both selected as Eastern Conference all-star reserves.
