In basketball, a three-point-play is achieved by scoring a two-point field goal, being fouled in the act of shooting, and scoring one point on the subsequent free throw. It was the only way to score three points on a single possession before the three-point field goal was created in the 1960's for professional basketball and 1980's for collegiate basketball. It is sometimes called an old-fashioned three-point play to distinguish from the later three-point shot.[1][2]And-1 is also sometimes used to refer to the extra free throw after a two-point basket.[citation needed]
