JRutledge There is no rule for that, but you also do not get to dictate where the players go as well. Often players will go the division line on their own. Just like some might during a normal FT. Peace
Adam Not a rule, never has been. Players just do it anyway, because 'everyone knows it's the rule". They never remember anything we say or do, but for some reason they remember this rule that a ref enforced when they were in 5th grade.
BillyMac For free throws when there are no rebounders in the marked lane spaces, i.e. technical fouls, and intentional fouls, the nine nonshooters shall remain behind the free throw line extended, and behind the three point arc.
Zoochy I do not have the exact words but it says: For games officiated with 2 officials, on intentional fouls and Technical fouls, the non administrating official will stand at the midcourt with the nine remaining players to observe them better. It DOES NOT say anything about games officiated with 3 officials. And does the statement just apply to where the official should stand? Or are the players lumped into the requirement of standing at the midcourt?:confused:

Zoochy What I wrote came from was a Missouri adoption. We also have a mercy rule, running clock in 4th quarter with 30+ point differential

Nevadaref Adam wroteStill a mechanics adoption, not a rules adoption. Running clock is definitely a rules adoption. It is one of the nine listed on page 68 of the rules book.
