The Nikon 70-200 f/2.8 G lens has served me well for years as a sports, event and portrait lens.
I've used mine for football, basketball, figure skating, gymnastics, hockey, wrestling, rodeo and horse shows and the VR and zoom capability makes it an excellent portrait lens.
It also performs well with a Nikon 1.4 teleconverter.
Even on a D700, the AF is fast and the lens tracks incredibly well on a D3/3s/4.
The version II is even sharper, the extra VR stops are great when you need them and the AF faster but you stated that was out of your price range.
I shoot both Nikon and Canon and the D4 and 1Dx are fantastic, low-light, high ISO, all-around sports cameras with the 70-200's attached.
Here are few examples:
