A1 never would have had a chance to see B1.

A1 would NOT be called for a foul in this situation. A1 no longer has the ball -- so the guarding rules on "a moving player with the ball" don't apply.
Read the guarding and screening rules and note the difference between stationary and moving; with the ball and without; airborne shooter.
