The ball is live once the official tosses the ball...any illegal contact will be a personal foul and since Team B is in the bonus, Team will be shooting free throws. Team A will get the possession arrow once the ball is placed at the disposal of the Team B free throw shooter.

4-3
Alternating-possession control is established and the initial direction of the possession arrow is set toward the opponent's basket when:
Art 2...The ball is placed at the disposal of the free thrower after a common foul when the bonus free throw is in effect.
