I interpret the figure to suggest putting weight on the outer padded part of the palm which is mostly above the outer two metacarpals. But I don’t have hamate sensitivity, so you may need to do things differently if that is also affecting the hamate bone.
The pad over the thumb metacarpal can also take some weight without bearing on major nerves. In some positions, I have both of those regions bearing some weight.
