I seem to remember a case play or interpretation in which the ruling was a personal foul even when there was not contact. The play, as I remember it,.... A1 holding the ball is guarded by B1. B1, using the ball, pushes B1 out of the way.
If I'm remembering this correctly, there is a ruling where a player can be called for fouling another player without having actually made direct contact....but having violated the spirit of the rule.
Given that, it would not be too far fetched to call a foul on player A3 for fouling player B1.
