Out of this list, I'll have to say Basketball.
ONLY because of the large amount of players trying to make it, the teams are limited and the number of player per is smaller than any other team sport. HOWEVER, it is nowhere close to the most physically demanding or difficult to play.
Golf would get my vote on a normal list, ainec. The difficulty to play golf at a pro level consistently is by far the most difficult of all sports.
Hockey would get my vote, but when you say "Professionally" I don't take it as NHL only. There are pro leagues all over the world.
