Along those lines, what about an inbounds play from endline where the other four players are stacked in a line down the free throw line. Can the defense request to be in between them?
Yes, 6-3-3.

No, 7-6-5. Only applies to parallel positions to the throw-in plane within 3 feet of the line.

Last week during an 8th grade boys game I actually had to tell some non-jumpers to move because they came onto the circle with their legs overlapping an opponent who had already established his position on the circle. I can't recall ever having to deal with it before.

Still can't find a citation that states that the spaces around the circle are three feet wide. I looked. Maybe I'm not looking in the right place. I remember being taught this, over thirty years ago, but I can't find it in the rulebook.

I've never heard anything about width, only depth.
