Ruling on the court was count the basket and Teams A's ball on the side near the foul.
I wasn't clear, but I assumed the ruling was that the foul was after the made basket. I think the foul was before the basket went in, but it was close.
Was this situation interpreted correctly?

The shooter is no longer in the "act of shooting" once he lands. Therefore any foul committed on him is the same as a foul committed on any other player on the floor; it's a common foul, not a shooting foul. Therefore, if the shooter's team wasn't in the bonus, they'd get the ball OOB for a throw-in at the closest spot to the foul. It doesn't matter whether the shot went or not either--same call.
