Jugador de baloncesto profesional / Jugador profesional de baloncesto


Explanation:
Depending on whether we are talking about professional basketball or professional players, the word "Profesional" will go after the word "Jugador" or after the word "baloncesto".

In case we are talking about the professionalism of the player: "Jugador profesional de baloncesto".

If we refer to the highly professionalized sport ( basketball) then the translation will be: "Jugador de baloncesto profesional".

Regards,

BSD

Baloncestista profesional


Explanation:
Otra traducción posible. En España prevalece el término "baloncesto" sobre "básquet". De ahí baloncestista.
