A1 is still on the ground under his own basket.

What are the determining factors when deciding to stop play or not? Does B have to be taking the ball to the rim in order to let them play on?
Quoting directly from the rule book:

When a player is injured, the official may suspend play after the ball is dead or is in control of the injured player's team or when the opponents complete a play. A play is comleted when a team loses control (including throwing for a goal) or withholds the ball from play by ceasing to attempt to score or advance the ball to a scoring position. When necessary to protect an injured player, the official may immediately suspend play.
