NBA Fast Break Run 10 | Day 12

Pick 5 Players who will combine for 5 Blocks and 5 Steals to earn your win.

Recap & Overview:

The up and down trend broke as we had a consecutive down day, but higher than the previous day with 40% of Fast Breakers earning a win. With the remaining three days and based on typical trends, we’ll have less than 50% earn wins from here on out unless the top utilized player has an outstanding day (like Steph yesterday).

Steph was utilized in about 80% of lineups and he came up big as he delivered 5 3PM and 13 3PA and helped most (if not all) of the 40% earn a win, so he is your clear Fast Break Stud of the Day. On the other hand, Fred VanVleet was utilized in 41% of lineups and he took five (5) three point attempts, but could only find the bottom of the net once. Congratulations to FVV on earning the Fast Break Dud of the Day award. Honorable mention goes to Tyrese Maxey who took an eye-popping 11 3PA…and didn’t make a single one. Great for daily rankings; terrible for earning a win.

There remains a single perfect record of 11 wins with only five (5) sitting in the wings with ten (10) wins. They’ll need to survive three more days to secure the top prize. For the rest of us, we are clawing for positioning on the overall rewards and many are scrapping for the 11 or 7-win rewards. Let’s get another much needed win today.

Today’s Objective(s):

Fast Break Day 12 requires five (5) players who will accumulate 5.0 or more blocks and gather 5.0 or more steals, which means your lineup will need to average 1.0 BLK & 1.0 STL per player. These two stats are infrequently correlated and very few who are projected to give you both while doing so over their last 10 games. Scottie Barnes is the only player who meets both of these criteria for both blocks and steals. If you don’t have Scottie available, taking a moneyball approach is your best bet for the day. Find specialists who can give you more than 1.0 and hope your overall total exceeds 5.0 per objective.

  • Little of Both: Scottie Barnes, Myles Turner, Kevin Durant, Ivica Zubac, Jerami Grant

  • Rim Defenders: Donovan Clingan, Myles Turner, Evan Mobley, Ivica Zubac, Naz Reid, Goga Bitadze

  • Thieves: Kris Dunn, Alex Caruso, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, James Harden, Nikola Jokic, Cason Wallace, Luka Doncic, Kawhi Leonard, Toumani Camara, Jaden McDaniels, Tyrese Haliburton, Jamal Murray, De'Aaron Fox, Scottie Barnes, Andrew Nembhard, Zion Williamson, Darius Garland, Chris Paul

  • Top Five (5) Players in Classic Lineups: M. Turner (78%), E. Mobley (67%), J. Poeltl (37%), K. Porzingis (23%), I. Zubac (21%)

  • Pro Mode: Rookie Year Badge

Looking Ahead:

  • Tomorrow, 40 FGM will be the single objective; 14 teams in action

  • Objectives frequency (after today): OREB, PIP, FGM

Considerations:

  • Ten (10) teams have the least number of games remaining (1) - Boston & Denver’s last game is today

  • Twenty (20) teams have the most number of games remaining (2)

  • San Antonio is playing the tail-end game of a back-to-back today

  • One of the remaining three days this run will have a single objective (or resembles a single objective)

  • Assists minus turnovers & +/- are not included as objectives for Run 10

  • Pro mode has additional limitations on Day 14 (Throwdowns)

Statistical Approach:

Top players in projected blocks & steals according to Rotowire & NBA.com, which is available in the table(s) below. Overall rank is based on daily projections, last 10 games, and rest of season projections, which is stack ranked amongst peers for each objective. When there is a single objective, the three data points are still used to stack rank the players vs. ranking solely on projections. For tome+ subscribers, projected rest-of-season stats are available in the provided data file. Omission of certain players would be based on injuries at the time of data pull.

Tome Collective’s Fast Break Run 10 Line-Up (Commons Only Challenge):

Many Fast Break participants do not have an extensive collection of rare or legendary moments, so they are limited to single use commons. Even with a limited lineup, participants have found a way to reach the maximum rewards. Follow along as the Tome Collective account participates in Fast Break without using any player more than once - in both our success and failures.

Whew. Without Steph, we would have earned an L, but thankfully we live to fight another day. Three for three to earn the 11-win reward. Let’s go.
