bbman's question opens up an interesting can of worms, far beyond the recent NFHS Point of Emphasis.

Has anyone ever observed a free throw shooter fouled (actual advantage gained) in the act of shooting?

Do the rules address this?

10-5 PENALTIES:
2. One free throw if fouled in the act of shooting and two- or three-point try or
tap is successful.
5. Fouled in act of shooting and try or tap is unsuccessful:
a. Two free throws on two-point try or tap.
b. Three free throws on three-point try or tap.
