I don't know if we should say that the ball is at her team's disposal.
We allow time outs in this situation by A, so I don't think we should stretch disposal out to the basket (usually teams immediately take it OOB, so this issue doesn't arise).
IMO, the correct thing is the delay warning for interference, 10-1-5d.
I know many here don't agree with the interpretation, but my reasoning is in-line with [Dick Knox's] interpretation regarding a player never taking the ball OOB and then making a "throw-in."
