2 Questions - Pt. 2 NFHS

Need help here. Wording is deceiving!

#6. A restraining line may be used as a boundry line when space is limited, and may extend the entire length or width of the court. (True)


#61. B1 is attempting a throw-in from the end line after A1's made basket when A2 commits an intentional foul against B2. After B2's free throws, the throw-in for Team B maybe anywhere along the end line. (False) Could B still move along the baseline? If so, that changes my answer to True.

Thanks!

You won't see this very often. Some real small gyms have the sideline right next to a wall. In that case, the defensive player would be right on top of the thrower if you let the defense come right up to the plane of the sideline. In many of those gyms, they have another line that is 3' from the sideline which marks the plane which the defense has to stay behind on a throw-in.

See the "Major Editorial Changes" in the front of this year's rule book. It says that a team will retain end-line priviliges after a violation or common foul. An intentional foul is not a common foul therefore endline privileges are lost.
