Remaining off the court or NOT going onto the court directly is similar to leaving the court for an unauthorized reason. In THIS case it should be obvious that A-1's movement, out of bounds, along the end line was to take advantage of the screen. "
Curiously, this Case Play is stated in Case Book 10.3.2 as penalized by a T.

Yep, failure to return is a T. Leaving the court is a violation. It's a bit inconsistent.
