te: This is an indirect object pronoun and is used to name the object of a sentence. In this case: Te gusta jugar baloncesto - Basketball is pleasing to you (you like basketball). ti: This is what is called a disjunctional or prepositional pronoun. That is to say that it is the pronominal form that you will find following a preposition. "a ti" is a restatement of the indirect object pronoun, and it is added in order give emphasis or clarity to the statement.
