No Myth. The hand is part of the ball when it is on the ball. Not the wrist or lower and not the hand just after the ball has been released. In a shooting scenario most good defenders take this out of the equation by playing defense over the top of the ball - downward motion or in a sideways motion after the ball has been released.
In a general play good coaches teach the defender to make the attempt under the hand of the offence from the either the front and or ball side of the body. When the ball is "no team control" with players after it there should be a more lenient interpretation on hand / wrist contacts until team control is gained eg. A scramble that may end up in a jump ball.
