1. A has team control (which does not end unless B secures control [or a shot or dead ball])
2. Ball has front court status
3. A is the last to touch it in front court (intentionally or not)
4. A is the first to touch it in back court (intentionally or not)
So...unless B secures possession it would not matter if B touched it before A tapped it into back-court.

3. A is the last to touch before the ball goes to the BC (it's not necessary to touch in FC)
4. A. is the first to touch after the ball goes to the BC (it's not necesary to touch in the BC)
