Wizards 100, Bucks 92 (OT): Marcin Gortat tallied 25 points and eight rebounds and John Wall contributed 19 points, six assists and five steals as visiting Washington sent Milwaukee to its 10th straight loss.

Martell Webster added 18 points and seven assists for the Wizards, who have won five of six to pull within one game of .500. Trevor Ariza scored 14 for Washington, including a key 3-pointer in overtime.

O.J. Mayo snapped out of his offensive funk with 21 points and hit a 3-pointer to send the game to overtime but couldn't save the Bucks from their longest skid since losing 15 straight in 1996. Khris Middleton added 13 points and seven rebounds and Ersan Ilyasova scored 12 for Milwaukee.

The Wizards opened a 76-68 lead early in the fourth, but Milwaukee put together a 9-0 run to reclaim the lead and Mayo's 3-pointer tied it at 87 with 6.9 seconds left in regulation. Wall missed a runner that would have won it in regulation, but Washington scored nine of the first 12 points in overtime, going up 96-90 on Ariza's 3-pointer with 1:35 left and sealing it at the line.

The Bucks ran out to an 11-2 lead in the first four minutes only to allow Washington to reel off nine straight to tie it. That set the tone for a back-and-forth contest, and the Wizards took a 49-48 lead at halftime.

GAME NOTEBOOK: The Wizards played their second game without leading scorer Bradley Beal, who will be sidelined at least two weeks with a stress injury to his right fibula. … Mayo had scored in single digits in four straight games. … The Bucks dropped to 0-11 when scoring fewer than 100 points.
