Answer 1

Athletic tape has been made for problems like yours with your wrist.

There should be absolutely no problem with having it on your wrist, I sprianed and almost broke some fingers, and I wore tape on my fingers for almost every game in the season, and there was no problem with it.  

But make sure that teh refs  know that it is an injury, and that you aren't just wearing tape because its a fashion statement!

Answer 2

It shouldn't be a problem. That's what it was made for.

Answer 3

Athletic tape is not illegal.  Casts and hard splints are illegal.  Anything that can be possibly harmful to you or your teammates would be illegal.  It would also be illegal if the referees thought you were taping your wrist just to help your passing.  If it is just athletic tape and it is on your wrist, the referees should be able to figure it out and allow it.
