I have a dilemma, would like to see if anyone has a resolustion.

Here is the scenario: Player A shoots the ball and his momentum carries him completely out of bounds. Player B (opposite team) rebounds the ball and is trapped on the baseline. Player B sees player A on the floor out of bounds and throws the ball off his torso. What is the call?

My belief: I seem to remember the rule being that if a player is completely out of bounds he is no more a part of the game than a spectator (or a chair) and the ball would return to the team of player A.
Nope. See rule 7-2 both articles are relevant.
