Robinson remained in custody late Saturday waiting and later appeared Sunday morning for a bond hearing at Markham Courthouse, according to a Markham Courthouse spokesperson.

Cook County Circuit Court Judge Camille Willis later set a $5,000 bond for Robinson.

Robinson had a firearm when he was arrested, but did not have a valid Illinois Firearm Owner's Identification card, Chicago Heights Police Department Sgt. David Wierzbicki said. Police would not release further details.

A message left at the home of Bucks spokeswoman Cheri Hanson was not immediately returned Saturday night.

Robinson, the former Purdue player, was the NBA's top draft choice in 1994 and signed a 10-year, $68 million contract with Milwaukee. He later signed a $12 million contract extension for the 2004-05 season.

Before the 1999-00 season, Robinson was arrested outside a Miami nightclub on disorderly intoxication charges.
