if a player saves the ball, can they be the first to touch if they re-establish themselves in bounds? or does someone else have to touch the ball first?

There is no restriction of any player that is legally inbounds to touch the ball, no matter where they were before coming inbounds.

You are getting a football rule mixed up in basketball. ;)

Peace
