Question: How many points does a free throw earn a team?
About the article "Basketball", section "Fouls".

Candidate passages:
Fans and announcers often call an infraction a "good foul," such as when the foul is against a player who would otherwise have made a sure basket.
By fouling the player and preventing an easy two points, the defender forces the offensive player to "earn" the two points from the free throw line.
However, if the foul does not prevent the player from scoring, the basket is counted and the fouled player gets an additional free throw.
After the fouled player shoots free throws, the team that was on defense is likely to gain possession of the ball.
This is by award, if the final free throw was made.
Even if it is missed, defensive players can occupy better positions at the side of the lane to get the rebound.
Near the end of the game, a team that is losing may purposefully foul offensive players to stop the clock and regain possession of the ball, with the hope that the player will miss his free throws.
Coaches study free-throw percentages, so that the defense will foul a ball carrier who is poor at free-throw shooting.
The "Hack-a-Shaq" strategy was famously practiced against Shaquille O'Neal in view of his poor percentage.
The defense is not free to foul its choice of the five offensive players, as a foul "away from the ball" results in free throws plus possession. 
During individual tournaments, team score is often kept.
The scoring system is not the same as the dual meet scoring.
At the high school level, post season tournaments do not keep team score.
The list below outlines all outcomes and/or actions that can affect a team score: Pin Fall: If a wrestler earns a pinfall, they earn two points for their team.
Technical Fall: If a wrestler earns a technical fall, they earn one and a half points for their team.
Major Decision: If a wrestler earns a major victory, they earn one point for their team.
Advancement Points: If a wrestler advances to the next round of competition in the winner's bracket, (the wrestlers who have not lost yet), he/she earns an additional two points for their team.
If a wrestler advances to the next round of competition in the Consolation bracket, (wrestler's who have lost once), they earn an additional one point of their team.
These points are not awarded during placement matches.
Byes: Sometimes there are not enough wrestlers to fill a perfect bracket, (2,4,8,16,32...), in that case a wrestler may receive a bye into the next round.
The wrestler does not earn advancement points unless he/she wins their next match.
The result of their match also adds onto their score.
For example, if a wrestler earns a bye then pins his/her next opponent they would earn eight points for their team.
Placement Round Points: If a wrestler wins in the Winner's bracket Quarterfinals, they earn an additional three points for their team, a win in the Semis earns and additional nine points, and a win in the first place match earns four points.
A win in the Consolation quarters earns three points, a win in the consolation semis earns four points and a win in third place match earns two points.
Depending on how many places are awarded, I.e.
three, four, six, eight, additional points may be award.
For example in a tournament that awards four places, the fourth place winner will earn one point, the third place wrestler will earn two, the second place wrestler earns three points, and the Champion earns four points.  
In basketball, free throws or foul shots are unopposed attempts to score points from a restricted area on the court (the free throw line; informally known as the foul line), and are generally awarded after a foul on the shooter by the opposing team.
Each successful free throw is worth one point. 
 Most points in a season (team) – 3,464 Most free throw attempts in a season (team) – 1,110 Most free throws made in a season (team) – 782 Most blocks in a season (team) – 238  
A three-point field goal (also known as a three-pointer, three, or trey) is a field goal in a basketball game made from beyond the three-point line, a designated arc surrounding the basket.
A successful attempt is worth three points, in contrast to the two points awarded for shots made inside the three-point line.
In 3x3, a formalized version of half-court basketball, shots from outside the arc are worth 2 points, with all other successful shots worth 1 point.
A three-point field goal is distinguished from a "three-point play" or an "and-1", which occurs when a shooter successfully scores a two-point basket while being fouled, and then makes the ensuing free throw.
If such a foul occurs on a successful three-point shot, the resulting free throw gives the player a chance to earn a four-point play.
If a player gets fouled while shooting a three-point shot but does not score they get three free throws.
In 3x3, a defensive foul on an unsuccessful shot from behind the arc results in two free throws.
Three-point field goal percentage is a measure of three-point shooting accuracy calculated by the ratio of three-point field goals made to three-point field goals attempted.
