What is the correction? Do we resume play with the FT or award it to one of the teams? If we award it to one of the teams, where do we spot it?

Since we are still in the correctable time provided by rule, we correct the error by having team A shoot one free throw, with the lane cleared. Team A will then get the ball at the spot nearest the violation.
