One And One, Or Three Shots?

Note that to make the play less confusing, I edited my post to show that the shooter was fouled after the release of the ball, but before he returned to the floor, so the direction of the shot was not affected by the foul by B1, yet, per rule, A1 was still in the act of shooting.

What's the theoretical call? Really. It's the off-season and I need my interpretation fix.
