Sad that Scott Foster ignored this as it was right in front of him.

Well, he didn't ignore it then. The player was gone by the 2nd free throw.

I don't understand your post. Are you telling me that the players may be anywhere they wish during the first FT under NBA rules as long as they are correctly positioned for the second?

I don't understand why a replacement FT was not awarded for the first FT after it was unsuccessful while a defender was standing inside the 3pt line.

Under NBA rules, during a free throw that will not remain in play, there is no violation for being in the lane early/entering from the outside early/players lined up incorrect/lined up when they shouldn't be. The only violation that could occur from these actions would have to be disconcerting action.

What is the purpose of the rule?
