Incorrect. A player can retrieve the ball if it hits the backboard or rim.

NBA Casebook 2010-2011

9. Player A1 passes the ball and it hits his backboard. May Player A1 be the first to touch the ball?

Yes. A player may be the first to touch his own pass if the ball touches
his basket ring, backboard or another player.
