What is free throw in basket ball?

Answer 1

A free throw is a free shot (shot at the free throw line) awarded for a few circumstances. If a player is fouled while shooting (or the fouling team is over the foul limit), then the player will shoot two or three free throws depending on where they were standing when they shot the ball. A free throw is also awarded to the best free throw shooter when the other team receives a technical foul.

Answer 2

only if the offensive player is in the act of shooting when fouled, or if the defensive team is over the foul limit when they foul the offensive player.

Answer 3

It is when you get fouled when you tried to shoot and you go to the free throw line and shoot 1,2, or 3 times depending on what shot you take. Each shot counts for 1 point.

Answer 4

indeed.

Answer 5
