"And 1" Situation

An "And 1" situation occurs when a player scores a two or three point field goal and is fouled in the act of shooting. A single free-throw will be awareded in this situation. You can identify "And 1" situations using the following logic:

var lastFoul = matchState.GameActions.Fouls.LastOrDefault();
var isAnd1 = lastFoul != null && 
lastFoul.Type != FoulTypeDto.Technical &&
lastFoul.NumberOfFreeThrowsAwarded == 1 && lastFoul.AreFreeThrowsCompleted == false;
if (isAnd1)
{
// Do And1 stuff
}

In other words, take the last foul in the Fouls collection in GameActions and an "And 1" situation exists if all the following are true.

The foul type is not Technical
The last foul NumberOfFreeThrowsAwarded is 1
The last foul AreFreeThrowsCompleted is false
