Depending on budget and how much reach you need:

  1. 50-140mm f/2.8 -- Relatively fast lens, fast AF.
  2. 200mm f/2.0 prime -- Crisp and sharp, fast AF, but less flexible as it's not a zoomlens

If you're still battling with noise in the images, try DxO for DEEPPrime noise reduction as first step in your image post processing (assuming you shoot in raw format). Otherwise try Topaz Denoise or Topaz Photo AI which can also remove noise from JPEG files.

The 200mm f2 would be amazing if it fits the budget.

For Basketball??
