I think these are the rule references you are referring to:

Art. 4. The following acts constitute a foul when committed against a player
with the ball:
a. Keeping a hand or forearm on an opponent;
b. Putting two hands on an opponent;
c. Continually jabbing an opponent by extending an arm(s) and placing a
hand or forearm on the opponent, and
d. Using an arm bar to impede the progress of a dribbler.

Art. 6. A player shall not extend the arm(s) fully or partially other than
vertically so that freedom of movement of an opponent is hindered when
contact with the arm(s) occurs.

Where your judgement would most likely have to be used is: are they using an arm bar to impede or is a natural position and is there any "extension" of the arm by the defender.
