Washington appeared to have the game won after Robinson's 17-foot jump shot with 10 seconds left in the overtime gave the Bullets a 108-105 lead.

But Craig Hodges, after a time out by the Bucks, took an inbounds pass at the top of the circle and hit a 27-foot three-point jumper with eight seconds left to tie the game.

Washington, 12-11, recieved 21 points each from Dan Roundfield, Jeff Malone and Robinson. Milwaukee, 17-9, got a career-high 29 points from Hodges.

In his first carrer start, Washington's 7-foot-6 rookie center Manute Bol finished with 18 points and blocked a club record 12 shots, including 11 in the first half.
