Early life
Pnini is Jewish, and was born in Israel.
Bnei Hasharon
After the 2001 season, Pnini began his professional career, by playing with Maccabi Rannana in the Israeli Super League.
Maccabi Rannana merged with Bnei Herzeliya and became Bnei Hasharon. Pnini became the captain of the team in the 2004–05 season, and in 2006, he was chosen to the israeli Super League's "All Israeli League Team".
Hapoel Jerusalem
In the 2006–07 season, Pnini signed with Hapoel Jerusalem, and with them, he won two Israeli State Cups – one in 2007, after beating his former team, Bnei Hasharon, in the final, and the other in 2008, after beating Maccabi Tel Aviv. In Jerusalem, Pnini became one of the most dominant Israeli players in the league.
Year in exile
Before the 2008–09 season, with one year remaining on his contract with Hapoel Jerusalem, Pnini signed a 3-year contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv, starting from the 2009–10 season. Hapoel Jerusalem appealed against the agreement to the IBA court, claiming that it was an unsportsmanlike situation that their player had a signed contract with their league opponents. The IBA court determined that Pnini had to spend the 2008–09 season playing outside of the Israeli Super League. After the verdict, Pnini signed with the Serbian team KK FMP. In January 2009, Pnini left KK FMP, and signed with the Cypriot team Keravnos, where he reached the Cyprus Basketball Division final, where his team lost 3:1 to APOEL Nicosia.
Maccabi Tel Aviv
After spending a season abroad, Pnini was allowed to fulfill his 3-year contract with Maccabi Tel Aviv, and he joined the team for the 2009–10 season. In December 2012, he was fined NIS 100,000, stripped of his role as the team's captain, and suspended, as the result of a Nazi slur that he used against another player, during a game.
On July 1, 2017, after 8 seasons with the club, Maccabi Tel Aviv have parted ways with Pnini.
Hapoel Holon
On July 3, 2017, Pnini signed a two-year deal with Hapoel Holon.
Israeli national team
Pnini is a regular member of the senior Israeli National Team, and he took part in the 2007 and 2009 EuroBaskets.
