I would say there is no limit on the distance of the rebound, it can occur beyond the three point line as well.
I would not under any definition consider the defensive player that was trying to get the ball a primary defender. Before the white player possess the ball, neither team can be considered offense or defense. When the white player does gain possession and become and offensive player, the opponent is clearly behind him. It would be a stretch to consider him a primary defender.
