do i have an elbow strain or tennis elbow?

im a basketball player, i play basketball everyday, workout for about 20 mins, mostly basketball. anyways, one day,i was shooting hoops,then suddenly i felt a sharp pain on my elbow, after that i had no strength on my arm, my arm was very weak. i couldnt shoot very well after that. but well i thought " its probaly just a sPrain. but next day, my arm was still weak. so i decided to ask my doctor about my elbow. and he said it was just a sTrain, "dont worry about it". so what im asking is how long will it take to heal, get my strength back on my arm???

now ill talk about tennis elbow, first of all, if u have tennis elbow, ur elbow will hurt a lot and weakness on your arm right?? But i have no pain on my elbow, just weak arm. so i dont have tennis elbow right?

i just want my arm strength back soon as possible so i can play bball again.
thanks guyz..
so elbow strain and tennis elbow is same thing??? if not my doc didnt say anythin about tennis elbow,
