It would be a great reward for B's awareness if they were allowed to inbound the ball for an easy shot at their own basket. But do you let things go that far?
As stated, this was a throwin and the teams (presumably) were already going the correct directions before the throwin.

Given that...

It will be over after 10 seconds due to the backcourt violation. If the "shot" occurs first, it counts. If the shot goes, the whistle is blown at that time...to clarify for the scorer that the points count for B. The throwin that follows is for A as if a player from team B made the shot (doesn't matter by who or how the points were scored.
