A lot more than a very small amount of hand is permitted.
In NFHS, at least, "He/she shall not contact an opponent with his/her hand unless such contact is only with the opponent's hand while it is on the ball and is incidental to an attempt to play the ball." (10-6-1)
Also, "It is legal use of the hands to reach to block or slap the ball controlled by a dribbler or a player throwing for a goal or a player holding it and accidentally hitting the hand of the opponent when it is in contact with the ball."
