"One Free Throw" rule to be tested in preseason. Potential impact on 8/9-cat

Fouls that result in one, two or three free throws under standard NBA rules will instead result in a single free throw attempt worth the same total number of points as the free throws it replaces.

I may look for some data to figure out the impact of this but at first glance it seems bad for high volume high percentage FT shooters. My guess is that over the course of an entire season it would be roughly similar, but in a given week there is a lot more room for variance due to lower volume across the board.
