1. dunker

   A dunker is primarily referred to as a person who performs a dunk, specifically in the context of sports like basketball where dunk is a type of shot. The term can also refer to a member of the Church of the Brethren, a Christian group often known as Dunkers due to their practice of full-immersion baptism. Furthermore, in a non-sporting context, a dunker could simply be someone who dunks things, for instance, a biscuit into a cup of tea.
