dunker

Biscuit in coffee

A dunker is someone who dunks—dips food into liquid before eating a cookie dunker, or slams a basketball through the hoop.

In basketball, a dunker is known for dramatic slam dunks rather than finesse shooting.

Capitalized, Dunker refers to a member of the Church of the Brethren, a Protestant denomination that practices baptism by immersion.
