Uh oh, same thing happened to me last summer. Heard the celery crunch, hurt a LOT, stood up and was able to walk it out that day (obviously didn't play again but could walk with a huge limp), but the next day, I couldn't walk and got X-rays (nothing broken). 
I was out for a month and a half, then tried to play at 50%-60% around five times...I didn't resprain it, but kinda tweaked it at times, and didn't really heal until December...even now it still doesn't feel 100%, more like 95%.
My recommendation is to ice it as much as you possibly can right now, then when you can, do some rehab exercises and DO NOT play basketball until you feel at least 90%.

I've messed up my right ankle twice now. Once when I was in elementary school(missed the last couple days of 3rd grade) and then worse my senior year of college. Snaps occasionally every day. The latest one was said to be a grade 2 or 3 sprain, and it's never gonna be the same.
