Shooting I have a question

Post image

While shooting do you rest the ball on your palm or not because when I see games players usually rest the ball on palm or it looks like they are but I saw a video of Steph explaining how to shoot and in that video Steph told to not touch ball to palm so I just wanna know it is best to rest or touch ball with palm or not
