You receive a free throw when someone fouls you on a shot attempt. You will receive two free throws if you attempted a two point field goal, three for a three point field goal, and if you make the shot while being fouled (two or three), you will get one free throw.
If a team has 4 team fouls (four fouls committed total by one team in one quarter), a player will shoot two free throws when fouled when they are not shooting.
One player is chosen to shoot a free throw when a technical foul is given, which usually results from unsportsmanlike conduct.
A free throw is awarded when a defensive player makes a foul upon an offensive player when the offensive player is attempting to shoot.
A foul is given if a defensive player:
- takes hold of an offensive player
- pushes an offensive player
- hits an offensive player
There are a lot of different times in most little leagues when the ball hits the rim, in the college and NBA when the free throw shooter shoots the shot.
You shoot a free throw if you are in the movement of shooting when they foul you or if you have (?5?) team fouls against you, whatever the foul you commit it will be a free throw
When someone fouls a person who is shooting gets a free throw.
All players can move once the ball is out of the shooters hands.

What is the big square on the free throw line do?
If you're referring to the "lane" or the "paint" it is the rectangle formed from the free-throw line, and perpendicular lines that extend from the ends of the free throw line to the endline. The official rule is that an offensive player cannot have any part of his body inside this "lane" for more than three seconds, otherwise a three-second violation is called. Also, when an offensive player is shooting a free-throw, no players can enter the lane until the ball hits the rim (High School rules).
If a player makes a free throw but his teammate commits a lane violation is it recorded as an unsuccessful free throw attempt or is it not counted as a shot at all?
