You are the T. You see all of this but there is no blood and no danger to the players falling all over, etc. B is on a break..... When the play "ends" or there is a break in the action and a TO is requested/granted, do you T him up for leaving the court? He has purposely left, but not deceitfully left.

Of course you don't. You wait to kill the play as you would for any other injury and then you stop the game at the apporpriate time. Team A can then sub for the injured player.
