1) B2 has fouled (Personal Foul, and is a Common Foul) A2. If Team A is in the Bonus, A2 will shoot free throws with players lined up. If Team A is not in the Bonus, Team A will receive the ball for a Throw-in nearest the spot of B2's foul.

2) Continuous Motion applies in this play. If A1's attempt goes through the basket: score it. If it does not: "Them's is the breaks."

Correct, IF it was a foul. As I envision the OP, it likely was NOT a foul (I don't see that A3 was disadvantaged, or that the contact was excessive, and it seems as though both MIGHT HAVE BEEN in similar positions going for a loose ball)
