It is not a "try" when A2 throws at B's basket. "A try for field goal is an attempt by a player to score two or three points by throwing the ball into a team’s own basket." (NFHS 4-41-2). So any foul committed against A2 during this throw is a common foul; there can be no "and 1". And, as JAR mentions above, the ball becomes dead immediately and if the ball subsequently passes through the basket, no points are scored. If A is in the bonus, we march to the other end and shoot the 1&1 (or 2).

As for how to record points scored at an opponent's basket: "If a player scores a field goal in the opponent’s basket, it is not credited to a player, but is indicated in a footnote." (NFHS 5-2-3)
