NBA experiments with new one-free-throw rule during Summer League

The NBA is set to test a new free-throw rule during the upcoming Summer League, which will allow players to take a single free throw worth one, two, or three points, eliminating multiple attempts. This change has been criticized by former player Ron Harper, who labeled it as 'stupid.' While the new rule aims to enhance the pace of the game, traditional free throw rules will remain enforced during the final two minutes of the fourth quarter and any overtime periods. As reactions unfold, the NBA has not announced when or if the rule will be adopted officially.
