I've actually found a way to do this, by looking at the request object that the SharePoint search box sends. You just need to add

AND (DepartmentId:{hubSiteId} OR RelatedHubSites:{hubSiteId})

to your search terms

Hi @Ankur
Per my research, there is no such api can reach your requirement in graph. As a workaround, I would recommend you to use rest api to list all sites which is either a hub site or associated with a hub site. Please refer to following url

Query: contentclass=sts_site  
Refinement filter: departmentid:string("{*",linguistics=off)  
Trim duplicates: false  
REST: /_api/search/query?querytext='contentclass%3dsts_site'&refinementfilters='departmentid:string("{*"%2clinguistics%3doff)'&trimduplicates=false
