9-3-2 says "No player shall be out of bounds when he/she touches or is touched by the ball after it has been released on a throw-in pass."
By touching the flag, B1 is considered out of bounds and touching the ball after the throw-in.
9-3 penalty puts the ball in that case at the designated OOB spot nearest the violation, which would be the OOB spot closest to the flag and the player.
