NBA Fast Break Historic | Run 2 | Day 9
Today’s Objective(s): 100 Points Scored & 10 Three Pointers Made
Overview:
We are down to the final two days of this run. Unlike WNBA Fast Break, which runs consecutively based on the season schedule, historic Fast Break is able to adjust schedules based on need. NBA Top Shot will likely tinker with the algorithm and team lineups (via a social vote) before the next one begins, so use the “offseason” to snipe elite players who are reliable in Fast Break based on the typical objectives required.
Speaking of objectives, today’s two targets are points scored and three pointers, which are often correlated but depends on the player. Overall, anticipate another challenging day considering the high point threshold and high three pointer threshold. 3PM will likely be the stat that determines whether you can win today, but PTS will determine where you rank today. Note that a single player with a poor scoring performance could also derail your pursuit of a win.
