Let's consult The Great Big Book of Everything:
"The ball is caused to go out of bounds by the last player in bounds to touch it or be touched by it, unless the ball touches a player who is out of bounds prior to touching something out of bounds other than a player.
"If the ball is out of bounds because of touching or being touched by a player who is on or outside a boundary line, such player causes it to go out." (NFHS 7-2, NCAA 7-2 is equivalent)
If the opponent is OOB and is touched by the ball, the opponent causes the ball to be OOB. Violation on the opponent. The ball is awarded to A for a throw-in at that spot.
