This situation was brought up by an NBA official at a camp I attended last summer. The HS and NCAA rulings are the same that the shot is good if it goes in and the foul is penalized on its own merits....either ball out of bounds to team A or bonus free throws. The same as if an off the ball foul had been comitted by B anywhere during a try by A (example in Purdue/Ohio St. last Saturday). However, the NBA is a different story....just for fun, here's their ruling:

If the shot misses, the shooter gets two (or three) free throws. If the shot is good, the player who was fouled gets one free throw, I don't know how they came up with that, but that's what it is. It even took awhile and rule book refernces to convince this official the college rule was different.
