Beginning 2nd quarter. White ball (arrow points to them). White fails to realize (I guess) that it is their ball after coming out of the huddle and the refs point and say white ball. Trailing official puts the ball down and starts counting, white never touches the ball and a 5 second violation is called. Blue inbounds and the game continues. My question: which way does the arrow point? Does it not change and stay with white? Or does blue get the ball and the arrow? Thanks

Arrow is switched when the throw in ends. One of the ways a throw in ends is on a violation on the throwing team.

B gets ball and arrow.

6-4-4 The direction of the possession arrow is reversed immediately after an alternating-possession throw-in ends. An alternating-possession throw-in ends when the throw-in ends or when the throw-in team violates.

6-4-5 The opportunity to make an alternating-possession throw-in is lost if the throw-in team violates....

Hmmm, so 6-4-4 is saying the arrow goes to the other team, and 6-4-5 is saying the first team loses the arrow? Isn't that essentially the same thing said two ways?

Which is a "switch" from all the rules that are essentially two different things said in the same way!

If they'd just pick one way of confusing me and stick to it!
