The clock should start as soon as the ball is touched legally by any player (A or B) inbounds. At that point, A1 will violate as soon as (s)he touches the ball while standing out of bounds. It's the same as B1 batting a legal throw-in back to A1 standing out of bounds. Good D.

In-bounder A1 dribbles ball OOB. The ball's spin allows a portion of the ball to be across the in-bounds plane while returning to A1's hands. While returning to A1, the ball is touched by B1 on the IB side of the boundary plane. The ball still makes it to A1's hands, so A1 tosses a pass in-bounds to A2.

I agree it is good D; but I would think that the throw-in actually ended when B1 touched the ball. Therefore, throw-in violation by A1 (ball bounced OOB on throw-in).

Even if B1 had legally batted the ball into the bleachers (ball never touching A1 after the bat), then that is still a violation on A1 IMO.
