There is no requirement that the defender be completely stationary. I'm sure BillyMac will be along with another myth busted shortly.
This is not even a LGP issue. In the OP, if the defender is planted in the lane, awaiting the dribbler, it doesn't matter which way he was facing. He still doesn't have to be completely stationary, along as is movement is away from the approaching offensive player.
