Time is running out in a close game. Team A is trying to foul to stop the clock. B-2 inbounds the ball to B-1 after a basket by Team A. As B-1 winds up to throw a full court pass to B-3, A-1 hits B-1's arm on the pass. B-1 falls to the ground. Official calls an intentional foul on A-1. B-3 hands the ball to the official. Team B coach tells B-3 to shoot the free throws.

Question: Who shoots the ball on an intentional foul? B-1 or B-3? Does this fall under Rule 8? Can anyone? Any rule references would be appreciated. Thanks!

To answer your question......who got fouled? That's who shoots.

If you want comments regarding the intentional foul, we don't have enough info.

Since this intentional foul occurred during a live ball, it is a personal foul. Therefore, you use the rule on attempting personal foul free throws.

RULE 8
SECTION 2 ATTEMPTING PERSONAL-FOUL FREE THROWS
The free throw(s) awarded because of a personal foul shall be attempted by the offended player. If such player must withdraw because of an injury or disqualification, his/her substitute shall attempt the throw(s) unless no substitute is available, in which case any teammate may attempt the throw(s) as selected by the team captain or head coach.


In your case this means B1 is the proper shooter.
