Just pulled up the rule book, apparently the player can move within a 3-foot area. See Art. 8. I thought for sure I've seen traveling called for shuffling feet while throwing in though.

I missed that rule change. Used to be one foot had to stay in place like a pivot. No wonder I've seen so much feet shuffling with no traveling calls. Now I'll have to stop yelling "WALK" when I see it.
Also as far as running the baseline, the ref handing the ball to the inbounder always gives one of 2 signals. Waving an arm indicates running the baseline is allowed in the situation. Pointing at the inbounder's feet just as the ref hands him the ball indicates that the 3-foot spot is being enforced.
