This page is part of the WikiProject on Basketball and provides a list of known fully professional leagues, and also those that are known to not be fully professional. As such this article can be used as an aide in considering the WP:NBASKETBALL guideline, which states that "Players who have appeared, and managers who have managed, in a fully professional league, will generally be regarded as notable."

The lists are currently incomplete and some entries are lacking sources.

If the source indicating the status is in a PDF document or other long article, please indicate the page number or sub-section. If the source is not in the English language please list the foreign-language text that confirms the fact, and provide an English-language translation.
