In basketball, a four-point play is the rare occasion when an offensive player shoots and makes a three-point field goal while simultaneously being fouled by a defensive player, resulting in a shooting foul and one free throw attempt, or a two-point field goal and is intentionally or flagrantly fouled on the shot and is awarded two free throws. If the player makes their free throws, they will have scored four points on a single possession.[1] The short-lived American Basketball League first introduced the four-point play to the game of basketball, and it was later adopted by the American Basketball Association during its inaugural season.[2] The National Basketball Association (NBA) introduced that rule in 1979; FIBA in 1984; the NCAA in 1986 (men only) and 1987 (women); the NHFS in 1987; and the WNBA in 1997.

Sam Smith of the Chicago Bulls completed the first four-point play in NBA history on October 21, 1979, in a game against the Milwaukee Bucks.[3] Dale Ellis was the first player in NBA history to complete two four-point plays in the same game when he did so in a win against the Sacramento Kings on January 26, 1988.[4]

Game 3 of the 1999 Eastern Conference Finals was decided by Larry Johnson's four-point play. With the New York Knicks trailing 88–91 and 5.7 seconds remaining, Johnson made the game-tying 3-pointer while drawing a controversial foul call against the Indiana Pacers' Antonio Davis. Johnson hit the subsequent free-throw to win the game, giving the 8th-seed Knicks a 2–1 lead in that series, which they won 4–2 (but lost to the San Antonio Spurs in the Finals).[5]

On April 29, 2009, James Jones completed two four-point plays in a span of eleven seconds.[6]

The Harlem Globetrotters also have a four-point field goal, with a line 30 feet from the basket as of December 2016. Previously, the Globetrotters also had a four-point circle, used since 2010.[7] While uncommon in professional basketball, leagues such as the PBA and Big3 have adopted different forms of a 4-point line, where one field goal is worth four points.[8] The NBA career leader in four-point plays is currently James Harden, who had 95 as of November 2024.[9]

In , a four-point play occurs when an offensive player successfully makes a while being fouled by a defender, and then converts the awarded , resulting in a total of four points scored by that player in the sequence. This play is possible under standard rules for personal fouls during successful field goal attempts, where the fouled player receives one free throw in addition to the made basket, with a maximum of four points allowed on a three-point attempt. The four-point play became feasible with the introduction of the three-point line in the (NBA) during the 1979–80 season, marking a significant evolution in scoring opportunities. The first recorded four-point play in NBA history was achieved by guard on October 21, 1979, during a game against the , when he made a three-pointer while fouled and sank the . Prior to the three-point line, similar sequences—known as three-point plays—could occur on two-point shots, but the four-point variant added excitement and strategic depth to the game, particularly in high-stakes situations like close contests or end-of-game scenarios. Renowned for its rarity and dramatic impact, the four-point play often shifts momentum, with iconic examples including Stephen Curry's multiple instances during Golden State Warriors' championship runs. It underscores the importance of defensive discipline, as fouling a shooter beyond the arc risks conceding extra points, and has influenced modern strategies emphasizing three-point . While not officially tracked as a standalone statistic by the NBA until more recent play-by-play data, it remains a celebrated highlight in lore across professional leagues worldwide.

Definition and Requirements

Core Concept

A four-point play in is a rare and exciting scoring event that combines a successful with an additional awarded due to a foul. It occurs when an offensive player, positioned beyond the three-point line, attempts a shot and is fouled by a defender in the act of shooting, yet manages to make the basket for three points before converting the subsequent for the fourth point. This sequence allows a single possession to yield four points, significantly impacting game momentum. For the play to qualify, the foul must be a personal foul committed against the shooter during their three-point attempt, and the must succeed; if the shot misses, the offended team receives three s instead, but no points are counted, preventing a four-point outcome even if all s are made. The is awarded as the "and-one" opportunity, emphasizing the shooter's resilience in completing the shot under contact. This prerequisite underscores the play's difficulty, as it requires precision from distance amid defensive interference. Visually, a four-point play typically unfolds with the shooter elevating for a jump shot from outside the arc, releasing the ball cleanly, and then absorbing contact—often a swipe to the , , or body—after the release, which referees deem a shooting foul. This post-release contact enables the ball to arc toward the basket unimpeded, creating the signature "and-one" moment where the player signals the foul while the shot swishes through the net. Unlike a standard three-point play, which awards only three points for an uncontested or non-fouled long-range basket, or a traditional and-one on a two-point shot that totals three points, the four-point play uniquely merges the value of a three-pointer with the bonus , making it a higher-stakes variation.

Conditions for Occurrence

A four-point play occurs when a player is fouled by a defender during a successful attempt and subsequently makes the awarded . The foul must be a personal foul committed against the shooter in the act of shooting, defined as the continuous motion beginning when the player begins to elevate or move the ball toward the basket and ending when the ball is released from the hand(s). If the foul is flagrant, additional penalties such as disqualification or technical free throws may apply, but the play still qualifies as a four-point play if the three-point shot is made and at least one free throw is successfully converted. For the field goal to count as three points, the shot must be a legal three-point , requiring the shooter's feet to be entirely behind the three-point line at the moment of release, with the ball also released from beyond the arc. The foul contact must occur before or during the release of the ball; under the NBA's officiating points of emphasis for the 2025-26 season, contact after release during follow-through may be called as a shooting foul if it is deemed to pose a risk to the shooter, resulting in free throws tied to the shot . Otherwise, such contact is typically considered incidental unless excessive, leading to a non-shooting personal foul. This aligns with the NBA's 2025-26 officiating points of emphasis, which prioritize calling fouls on post-release contact to shooter , potentially increasing four-point play opportunities. determine the three-point status based on the shooter's position and the ball's at release, often reviewing the arc if necessary. The awarded free throw, known as the "and-one," must be made to achieve four points total; if missed, the play is recorded only as a . This single is granted because the successful already counts, distinguishing it from unsuccessful attempts where multiple free throws (three for three-point shots) are awarded instead. Edge cases include situations where the foul is called after the shot but the contact clearly began before release, which may still qualify as a shooting foul upon review. A legal three-point attempt requires no part of the shooter's foot on or across the line at release; if any portion touches the line, it is treated as a two-point attempt. Non-qualifying scenarios encompass offensive fouls, such as charging, where the shooter is penalized instead of rewarded. Fouls not involving the shooter, like away-from-the-play or non-shooting contact, do not trigger tied to the field goal. Additionally, successful shots from inside the three-point line fouled during the attempt result in a three-point play (two points plus one ), not four.

Rules and Mechanics

NBA Regulations

In the NBA, a four-point play is governed by Rule No. 12, Section I—b, which addresses shooting fouls. If a defensive player commits a personal foul against an offensive player in the act of a successful , the basket is counted, and the fouled player is awarded one attempt. For a , this setup allows for four total points if the subsequent free throw is made, as the three points from the field goal plus one from the free throw. This rule applies uniformly to all successful field goals, with the three-point distance determining the base value of the shot. Officials assess fouls based on whether contact occurs during the shooter's upward shooting motion, which must be reviewed for timing relative to the ball's release. If there is uncertainty about the shot's distance or the foul's legitimacy, instant replay under Rule No. 13, Section I(a)(6), can be triggered to determine if the shooter was attempting a two-point or by verifying position relative to the arc. This review, conducted by the Replay Center Official, must occur before the fouled player attempts the and may also confirm the exact moment of contact or if the foul preceded clock expiration. Such reviews ensure accurate awarding of points and free throws without altering the game's flow unnecessarily. The implications of a shooting foul extend to team penalties: it counts as one team foul, and if the fouling team has reached five team fouls in the quarter (entering the bonus), the offended team benefits from the plus any subsequent foul advantages, though the core award remains one for a made shot. In cases of flagrant fouls—unnecessary or excessive contact classified as Penalty (1) or (2) under Rule No. 12, Section IV—the fouled shooter receives two and ball possession regardless of shot outcome; for a successful three-point , the basket counts, but the standard one is superseded by the flagrant penalty's two , potentially yielding five points if both are made. Flagrant fouls also carry disciplinary measures, such as ejection for Penalty (2). Since 2000, rule changes have focused on player behavior without modifying four-point play awards. In , the NBA introduced anti-flopping measures, defining flopping as exaggerated physical acts to induce fouls and imposing progressive fines starting at $5,000 after a warning, escalating to $30,000 for a fifth offense within a season, to curb simulations during contact on shots including three-pointers. These post-season fines did not impact in-game scoring. The rules evolved further in the 2023-24 season with an in-game for flopping, resulting in one and possession, but four-point plays from legitimate fouls remain unchanged. NBA.com tracks four-point plays via detailed play-by-play logs integrated into box scores and advanced statistics. These events are recorded as a made three-pointer immediately followed by a attempt after a shooting foul notation, updating the player's totals for points scored, three-pointers made, attempted and made, and personal fouls drawn. This data feeds into game recaps, player profiles, and seasonal leaderboards on the site, allowing fans and analysts to quantify such plays' frequency without a standalone "four-point play" stat category.

Variations in Other Leagues

In international governed by rules, a four-point play occurs similarly to the NBA when a player is fouled during a successful attempt, awarding the three points plus one . The three-point arc is positioned at a uniform distance of 6.75 meters (22.15 feet) from the basket center, shorter than the NBA's, which encourages higher volumes of three-point attempts overall. However, interpretations of contact are generally stricter, requiring more blatant illegal contact to call a shooting foul, potentially reducing the incidence of awarded four-point opportunities compared to the NBA's more permissive physicality. In NCAA men's , the of a four-point play mirror those in professional leagues, with a successful three-point shot counting for three points followed by one if fouled in the act of shooting. The three-point line, aligned with at 22 feet 1.75 inches from the basket center since the 2019-20 season, facilitates more frequent three-point shooting due to its proximity relative to the NBA line, though the rate of successful four-point conversions remains comparable owing to similar foul assessment standards. Instant replay in NCAA allows reviews for specific aspects of fouls, such as determining if an off-ball foul occurred before or after a shot (permitted since 2019) or classifying flagrant fouls, but does not generally permit overturning standard shooting foul calls. This limited scope may occasionally result in un-reviewed fouls affecting four-point opportunities. For the 2025-26 season, the NCAA introduced coach's challenges allowing teams to request instant replay for specific calls like violations or out-of-bounds, using a timeout, further refining game officiating. The WNBA adheres closely to NBA regulations for four-point plays, awarding one free throw after a made three-pointer on which a foul is committed. Its three-point line measures 22.15 feet at the top of the arc but shortens to 21.65 feet in the corners, promoting aggressive corner three-point shooting and slightly elevating the potential for fouls in those areas compared to the NBA's uniform corner distance of 22 feet. Foul interpretations align with the NBA's, emphasizing contact that affects the shot, resulting in four-point play frequencies that scale with the league's overall three-point attempt volume. EuroLeague competitions, operating under FIBA guidelines, treat four-point plays identically to international standards: a made three-point shot plus one for a shooting foul. While unsuccessful three-point fouls award three s rather than two, the focus on made shots for four-point plays remains consistent. The shorter FIBA arc contributes to higher three-point attempt rates, but stricter enforcement of contact limits fouls, yielding four-point play occurrences similar to FIBA events despite the increased shooting volume.

History

Origin with the Three-Point Line

The three-point shot was first introduced in professional basketball by the American Basketball Association (ABA) during its inaugural 1967–68 season, with the line drawn at a uniform distance of 25 feet from the basket. ABA commissioner George Mikan championed the innovation as a means to enhance excitement and introduce greater strategic depth to the game, allowing for higher-scoring plays and rewarding precision from beyond traditional shooting range. This fan-friendly experiment differentiated the ABA from the more conservative NBA and quickly became a hallmark of the league's style. Four-point plays were possible in the ABA from this season onward, as fouls on successful three-point attempts awarded an additional free throw. Before the three-point line's creation, four-point plays were impossible under standard rules, as all field goals were valued at two points regardless of distance. A foul committed during a two-point attempt could yield at most three points total—an "and-one" scenario where the shooter made the basket and converted one subsequent —limiting the penalty for defensive infractions and keeping scoring more predictable and contained. The NBA finally adopted the three-point line for the 1979–80 season after the ABA's merger in , setting it at 23 feet 9 inches from the basket at the top of the key while shortening the corners to 22 feet, a design that persisted until modifications in the –95 season. Traditionalists within initially resisted the change, dismissing it as a that undermined the game's fundamentals rather than enriching them. On October 12, 1979, guard sank the first NBA three-pointer in a season-opening game against the , marking the shot's official debut though its full implications, including fouled attempts worth potential four points, would unfold over time. This innovation spurred a cultural shift in basketball, accelerating overall scoring pace by incentivizing long-range attempts and heightening the stakes of fouls on such shots, which could now result in up to four points and transform momentum in close contests.

Key Milestones and Evolution

The first four-point play in NBA history occurred on October 21, 1979, when Chicago Bulls guard Sam Smith made a three-pointer against the Milwaukee Bucks, was fouled by Marques Johnson, and converted the ensuing free throw during a 113-111 loss. This milestone marked the practical realization of the play following the three-point line's introduction earlier that year, setting the stage for its integration into competitive basketball. In the and , four-point plays saw a gradual rise as teams like the and emphasized three-point shooting to stretch defenses and create spacing. League-wide three-point attempts increased from an average of about 3.5 per game in the to around 13 per game by the , leading to more fouls drawn on such shots. of the exemplified this trend with his frequent and-ones on three-pointers, including a notable four-point play in the first quarter of a 120-87 win over the Lakers on June 16, 2000. The brought an analytics-driven shift that amplified three-point volume, as teams recognized the efficiency of long-range shooting, resulting in heightened foul opportunities and four-point plays. This evolution peaked in the era of the , where high-volume attempts became standard; Curry himself has completed numerous four-point plays since detailed tracking began in 1996-97. Correlating with three-point attempts surging beyond 35 per game in the , four-point plays have become more frequent. James Harden leads all players with over 100 four-point plays since 1996-97 (as of October 2025), far surpassing others including . Achieving three four-point plays in a single game by one player remains exceptionally rare, emphasizing the play's elusiveness despite increased attempts.

Notable Examples

Iconic NBA Instances

Reggie Miller's 1998 Eastern Conference Semifinals against the showcased his mastery of the four-point play, as he executed multiple such sequences that epitomized his foul-drawing prowess. Miller tallied 39 points in Game 1, including several and-ones that shifted momentum, helping take a 1-0 series lead en route to a 4-3 victory; his antics, including taunting fan , added to the rivalry's intensity. In the , delivered a crucial four-point play in Game 3 against the , highlighting his ability to perform under pressure. With the Warriors leading by 8 in the third quarter, Curry drained a three-pointer while being fouled, then converted the to extend the lead to 11, contributing to a 120-90 blowout that put Golden State up 3-0 in the series. Curry scored 26 points in the game on 8-of-15 shooting, rallying the team amid a dominant performance that showcased his shooting despite the eventual 4-3 series loss in Game 7. James Harden's step-back three for a four-point play came in Game 3 of the 2018 Western Conference Semifinals versus the , a key moment in Houston's 113-92 rout. Trailing by 2 early in the second quarter, Harden executed a step-back three over while drawing the foul, sinking the to ignite a 25-4 run that gave the Rockets a commanding lead. Harden finished with 30 points, 12 assists, and 5 rebounds, his foul-drawing efficiency helping secure a 3-0 series advantage and eventual 4-1 win, advancing to the conference finals.

Examples in College and International Basketball

In college basketball, one of the most memorable four-point plays occurred during the 2014 NCAA Tournament's first round, when Stephen F. Austin's Desmond Haymon was fouled while draining a three-pointer with 0.8 seconds left in against VCU, forcing and securing an 77-75 upset victory for the 12th-seeded Lumberjacks. This clutch moment, followed by Haymon's three points in , exemplified the high-stakes drama of March Madness and propelled the underdog team to national attention as . Another notable instance came in the 2019 NCAA , where Auburn's executed a four-point play late in the first half against , helping the fifth-seeded Tigers rally from a deficit to win 77-71 in overtime and advance to their first . 's and-one three-pointer, part of his 26-point performance, shifted momentum in the SEC rivalry matchup and underscored the rarity of such plays in settings, where defensive intensity often limits shooting fouls. Internationally, four-point plays have also proven pivotal in high-profile competitions. During the 2004 Athens Olympics semifinals, Argentina's Manu Ginóbili tallied multiple and-ones, including fouls on three-pointers, en route to a 29-point outburst that led to an 89-81 upset over the United States and paved the way for Argentina's gold medal triumph. Ginóbili's aggressive drives and shooting drew four such fouls, highlighting his role in one of the greatest international basketball upsets. The prevalence of four-point opportunities in international basketball is influenced by FIBA rules, where the three-point arc measures 6.75 meters from the basket—about 1.6 feet shorter than the NBA's 7.24 meters—encouraging more frequent long-range attempts and, consequently, heightened physicality that increases fouling chances during shots. This setup, combined with fewer restrictions on contact compared to the NBA, fosters more aggressive defenses and thus more potential for and-ones in tournaments like the Olympics and .

Impact and Statistics

Strategic Value in Games

Defenders face significant risks when contesting three-point shots, as aggressive closeouts can result in fouls that lead to four-point plays if the shooter makes the basket and the free throw. This dilemma forces defenders to balance between tightly guarding the shooter—risking contact during the release—or sagging off to avoid fouls, which opens up uncontested three-point opportunities. Four-point plays particularly punish overly aggressive defenses, as the potential for four points in a single possession amplifies the cost of a foul. Offensively, players exploit these defensive vulnerabilities through tactics like pump-faking to draw contact or leaning into defenders during the shot, increasing the chances of fouls on three-point attempts. Stars such as and have mastered these techniques, using hesitation moves or slight adjustments to bait defenders into committing fouls while maintaining their shooting form. These strategies turn potential three-point makes into higher-value possessions, rewarding skilled shooters who can combine accuracy with physical savvy. A four-point play often creates a substantial swing, effectively erasing a three-point deficit in one possession and shifting the game's toward the scoring team. For instance, when trailing by three, it ties the score immediately, fueling comebacks by energizing teammates and disrupting opponent rhythm. Coaches respond with adjustments like intentional fouling before the three-point line in late-game situations to prevent such plays, limiting opponents to two free throws instead of risking a made three plus one. Zone defenses can mitigate foul risks by reducing one-on-one contact but do not fully eliminate the threat, as shooters still draw fouls on drives or contested perimeter shots. Beyond tactics, four-point plays provide a psychological edge, boosting the shooter's confidence and often demoralizing the defense, which can lead to extended scoring runs. The rarity and high-impact nature of these moments amplify their emotional weight, pressuring opponents to second-guess their closeouts and fostering offensive aggression.

Rarity and Player Leaders

Four-point plays, which require a successful three-point shot followed by a made after a foul, have historically been infrequent in the NBA but have become more commonplace in recent years due to the league's emphasis on three-point shooting. Introduced alongside the three-point line in , these plays were extremely rare in the early decades, often occurring less than once per game across the league, as three-point attempts were limited. By the and into the , however, the "three-point " has elevated their frequency to a semi-common occurrence, particularly among high-volume shooting teams, though they still represent a small fraction—estimated at under 1%—of overall possessions. Tracking for four-point plays has improved in the post-analytics era, with play-by-play data available since the mid-1990s revealing a strong between elevated three-point attempt rates and the likelihood of these plays; teams averaging 30 or more three-point attempts per game typically record roughly twice as many four-point plays as those with lower volumes. Pre-2010 statistics remain incomplete and less reliable, but the trend underscores how strategic shifts toward perimeter offense have amplified opportunities for fouls on three-point shots. In , the intensity often leads to a slight uptick in fouled threes, contributing to more four-point conversions compared to the regular season. This trend has continued into 2025, with high-volume three-point teams generating more such opportunities amid ongoing emphasis on long-range shooting. Among all-time leaders in four-point plays (regular season and playoffs, tracked since 1996-97), as of late 2024, held the top spot with 100—a milestone reached that year—far surpassing previous records and highlighting his prowess in drawing contact on deep shots. ranked second with 66, benefiting from his record-breaking three-point volume, while , known for his acrobatic finishes and flair, sat third with 54, a mark that stood as the benchmark for years. Other notable performers included J.J. Redick (43) and (24), with the list requiring a minimum of 10 for inclusion. More recent unofficial tallies as of October 2025 show continued accumulation, with Harden exceeding 109 and Curry at 75. Seasonal highs further illustrate the play's growing integration into elite offenses; for instance, the 2015-16 , who set an NBA record with 1,077 three-pointers made, exemplified elevated four-point play totals amid their 73-win campaign, aligning with their three-point-heavy style. This aligns with broader trends where high-pace, three-point-heavy teams like the Warriors dominate such statistics, though comprehensive league-wide per-game averages remain elusive due to inconsistent historical tracking. Comparatively, four-point plays arise in approximately 5% of instances where a three-point shooter is fouled, a rate boosted by modern defensive schemes that risk contact to contest long-range shots.
