That’s not a violation.
A2 is the first to touch the ball in the backcourt, but he/she or a teammate was not the last to touch it in the frontcourt. That was B2.
This scenario has the same facts as that old interp #10 which we used to disparage and it finally got overturned with a rule clarification about two seasons ago.
