Afterward, I make the comment that it should NOT have been a handcheck call, but a push, and count the basket and give them one shot, or else call nothing at all...

To add a new wrinkle to the answers already given - Though the play itself was different, a few weeks back I saw an Womans NCAA tape during a class that advocated calling an intentional foul when the move has started to the basket and the defender is clearly not playing the ball.
In this case, two points for the made basket, two shots for the intentional, and A getting the ball back would make B5 think long and hard about handchecking again.
