Explanation:

In basketball, when a player is fouled while shooting a three - point shot and the shot is blocked (or missed), if the foul is a shooting foul, the shooter is awarded three free throws. Here, Steve was shooting a three - point shot and John fouled him while blocking, so the correct call should be three free throw shots for Steve.

Answer:

the option with "three free throw shots" (the second option from the top among the given options)
