BULLETS star Daniel Kickert has been charged with head-butting Adelaide 36ers’ swingman Anthony Drmic in the second quarter of Brisbane’s 105-87 NBL win over the weekend.

The NBL game review panel has ruled Kickert guilty of an “intentional, low impact and high contact” charge.

The base penalty is a one-match ban, although should Kickert accept an early guilty plea, he will avoid suspension and instead be fined $1000.

Kickert and the Bullets have until midday (EDT) on Wednesday to respond to the charge.
