Running and weight training are what I (try to) do. I realize that basketball is a series of sprints, but doing some distance running forces your body to adapt to a different kind of running, become stronger overall, and increases overall stamina. And weight training for the core, especially the legs, is beneficial to running as well. Don't neglect the upper body, as pumping the arms is an important component in the overall ability to run well.
