A2 steals ball and is 6-7 feet in front of everyone as he lays it in. Second wave of guys coming down court - B3 shoves A3 to the floor to get into rebounding position in case the rebound misses. Center official calls the pushing foul, counts the basket, and then proceeds to award the shooter one free throw!

Almost correct. The shooter -- A2 -- would not have received the free throw. The player who got fouled -- A3, in this case -- would get the chance to complete the 3-point play.
