NBA Fast Break Historic | Run 4 | Day 8

Today’s Objective(s): 50 Rebounds & 10 Offensive Rebounds

Recap:

Day 7 was the first day this series where less than 70% of Fast Break participants earned a win — more specifically, only 16% walked away happy yesterday. So long as you lean on the players who have a tendency to accumulate 10+ rebounds, today should get the majority back on their winning ways. If, however, participants deviate from the data and rely on career stats, we may see another low win day.

Kemba Walker, utilized 37% of lineups (3rd most), came through as he accumulated 29 points scored and 1 three pointer made. With his performance, he earned the Fast Break Stud of the Day award. Dirk Nowitzki, on the other hand, was the 5th most utilized player and had been averaging multiple three pointers a game…until yesterday. Although 25% of lineups had Dirk rostered, he could only contribute 16 points with no three pointers. With his less than stellar performance, he earned the Fast Break Dud of the Day award.
