Contact with the hand is legal if it is "only with the opponent's hand while it is on the ball and incidental to an attempt to play the ball."


No foul.

Conceivably, if a defender obviously intentionally makes a point of slapping the hand "as hard as possible" it could be an intentional foul.

I have never seen this call, but if indeed one's intent was to slap anything "as hard as possible" it might tend to be difficult to confine this contact only to the hand.

I would advise against attempting to use this as strategy.
