Ed Dancker

Edward Charles Dancker (March 14, 1914 – October 3, 1991) was an American professional basketball player.

A 6'7" center who grew up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Dancker began his professional career in 1938 with the Sheboygan Red Skins of the National Basketball League (NBL). He averaged 7.8 points per game and served as the team captain. He also was the longest-tenured player in the Sheboygan franchise, with him playing for Sheboygan until 1948 following the end of the NBL's penultimate season of existence. For the 1948–49 season, Dancker played for the nearby Oshkosh All-Stars instead, though he wouldn't play for the majority of Oshkosh's final season of existence as a professional franchise. Dancker was a five-time NBL All-Star and ranked fourth among all-time NBL scoring leaders.
