If shooter misses foul shot, player with ball behind them, then attempts his foul shot before the player who missed foul shot can get his rebound and sink a shot.

If rebounder gets shot in before next man gets foul shot in, he remains in the game...If foul shooter beats rebounder with a successful basket, then rebounder is now out of the game. Play continues until you have a winner.
