NBA Fast Break Run 12 | Day 1
Pick 5 Players who will combine for 25 Assists to earn your win.
Overview:
As one Fast Break run ends, another begins - this time, pro mode is expanded with more rewards while classic mode remains unchanged. That means there are 13 days where there are daily rewards for the top 435, win-based rewards where 3/7/11/13 wins are needed, and run-based rewards where the top 1,500 overall earn additional rewards.
Last run, pro mode had a five days where there was an additional limitation. This run, each day requires badges, challenge rewards, and rare set moments (Metallic, Throwdown, For the Win, & Video Game Numbers).
If you are a tome+ subscriber, you have access to multiple resources including Witty’s Fast Break Targets which has two iterations - one for the NBA and one for the WNBA. These resources are updated about once every two weeks during the season, but they can be updated as requested by our readers. In addition, tome+ subscribers have access to Witty’s Cheat Sheet which maps out the thirteen (13) days of this run to help you plan accordingly. If you are not a tome+ subscriber, a single rare moment (NBA or WNBA) grants you access for three (3) months. Otherwise, $4.99 per month or $12.99 for three months will grant you access.
Otherwise, you can read our free article, which offers the same daily content minus the expanded data and player options. Additionally, you can follow along with our daily lineups. We had a positive run using only common moments where we landed in 909th overall which earned a small reward. Let’s see how this run goes.
Today’s Objective(s):
Fast Break Day 1 requires five (5) players who will distribute 25.0 or more assists, which means your lineup will need to average 5.0 AST per player. As there are only 8 teams in action, your options are quite limited. There are also many days where your options are limited, so be sure to plan ahead.
Distributors: Trae Young, James Harden, LaMelo Ball, Darius Garland, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Stephen Curry, Damian Lillard, Jayson Tatum, Draymond Green, D'Angelo Russell
Top Five (5) Players in Classic Lineups: J. Harden (85%), D. Garland (78%), T. Young (70%), J. Butler (47%), L. Ball (45%)
Pro Mode Limitations: Top Shot Debut
Looking Ahead:
Tomorrow, 5 OREB & 35 PIP will be the two objectives; 22 teams in action
Objectives frequency (after today):
3x: PIP
2x: PTS, AST, BLK, 3PM, 3PA, FGM, OREB
1x: FGA
Considerations:
Memphis & Minnesota have the least number of games this run (5)
Cleveland has the most number of games this run (8)
No teams are playing the tail-end game of a back-to-back today
Day 1, 3, & 5 have the least number of teams in action (10 or less), so your lineup options will be more limited on these days
Day 2 & 4 have the most teams in action (20+), so your lineup options will be the most expansive
Denver & Utah last game this run lands on Day 11
9 of 13 days this run will have a single objective (or resembles a single objective)
Assists minus turnovers & +/- are not included as objectives continue to be MIA; Steals is not included this run either
Pro mode has a different limitation each day; it also has different objectives compared to Classic
Statistical Approach:
Top players in projected assists 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 12 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.
Fresh run means a new opportunity to maximize our rewards. There will be changes along the way, but we’ve outlined the run based on projections where we use each player only once. Our primary objective is the 7-win reward with a stretch goal of 11-wins.
