It used to be that way; then they changed, letting the L administer the last free throw. Now the L administers all the free throws.

Notice that under FIBA a violation by the free throw shooter prevails over any other violation:

43.3.1 If a violation is committed by a free-throw shooter:
• Point, if made, shall not count.
• Any other player’s violation, which occurs immediately before, at approximately the same time as, or after the violation committed by the free-throw shooter, shall be disregarded.

Then there's the rule many of you won't like : violations by any other players than the shooter are disregarded if the throw is successful.

Funny to watch some of the ESPN Classic games where the T administers the free throw. Also, there would line up 8 players in the lane. Not sure how the top two spots were filled??? Glad to see we change how we used to do it.
