This is a throw-in violation, not an out of bounds violation. The penalty spot for a throw-in violation is the spot of the original throw-in.

Keep in mind that if the ball goes directly from the throwin and contacts a player who is out of bounds, then that out of bounds player caused the ball to go out of bounds and the other team will inbound from the out of bounds spot.
(Unless you're as old as Mark T. DeNucci, Sr., in which case the player throwing in the ball caused it to go out of bounds, but that was a very, very, very long time ago, and Dr. Naismith has changed the rules since then.)
