Slam dunk

A slam dunk (also called a dunk) is a type of move in basketball. It is done when a player jumps in the air and puts the ball into the basket with their hands. It is worth two points. The move was known as the "dunk shot" until Chick Hearn used the words "slam dunk".^[1] Hearn was the announcer for the Los Angeles Lakers.^[2]
