Answer:

There is no difference

Step-by-step explanation:

Básquetbol / básquet are anglicisms that are used in a lot of Latin America. They're synonymous with baloncesto so you'll hear it used as well. For official names of things like leagues, global or regional tournaments, national teams, etc. you will see baloncesto used more often than the informal Spanglish word.
