NBA Fast Break Run 12 | Day 3
Pick 5 Players who will combine for 10 Three Pointers Made & 20 Three Point Attempts to earn your win.
Recap & Overview:
Day 2 produced a similar result to Day 1 where 94% of participants walked away victorious. Today will likely have a similar outcome considering the lower than usual threshold for three pointer days. Day 4 will be the first true test of the Run 12 Classic run whereas the Pro mode is showing more challenge each day. Even if you lose, it is better to set a pro lineup than phoning it in. It could be the difference between earning a run-based reward vs. not earning one at all.
Yesterday required only 35 points in the paint and 5 blocks. If you were one of the 69% who started Alperen Sengun, he single-handedly delivered 5 blocks along with 40% of the needed PIP. With this performance, he earned the Fast Break Stud of the Day. As was the case on Day 1, there were no egregious underperformers of the top five utilized as each delivered what was expected of them.
As you plan the rest of your run, days like today are ones where you can leverage the flexibility so you aren’t wasting your top players. Once you’ve outlined the remaining lineups, you can come back to days like today to establish your best lineup available based on your collection constraints and the limited number of teams in action today.
Today’s Objective(s):
Fast Break Day 3 requires five (5) players who will make 10.0 and take 20.0 or more three pointers, which means your lineup will need to average 2.0 3PM & 4.0 3PA per player. The latter is more a formality than deterrent, but it’ll be the difference between where you rank on the day. As today’s objective is 5.0 less than it typically is, you have flexibility to use good players without wasting all your best players. The key is simply reaching 10.0 three pointers made.
Outside Snipers: Stephen Curry, LaMelo Ball, Luka Doncic, Damian Lillard, Coby White, Zach LaVine, Tyrese Haliburton, Austin Reaves, Jamison Battle
Top Five (5) Players in Classic Lineups: C. White (69%), S. Curry (58%), L. Ball (56%), L. Doncic (46%), D. Lillard (45%)
Pro Mode Limitations: Challenge Reward
Looking Ahead:
Tomorrow, 125 Points Scored will be the single objective; 20 teams in action
Objectives frequency (after today):
3x: PIP
2x: PTS, AST, BLK, FGM, OREB
1x: FGA, 3PM, 3PA
Considerations:
Minnesota has the least number of games remaining (4)
Twelve (12) teams the most number of games remaining (6)
Chicago, Indiana, LA Lakers, New York & Sacramento are playing the tail-end game of a back-to-back today
Day 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 4 has 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
8 of 11 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 offensive rebounds & points in the paint 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.
Second win alongside 94% of Fast Break participants! Today feels like a layup considering only 10 three pointers are needed. The first test will come on Day 4, so let’s take care of business and move onto tomorrow.
