NBA Fast Break Historic | Run 2 | Day 2
Today’s Objective(s): 30 Assists & 5 Steals
Fast Break Historic Recap: Day 1
Only 45% of Fast Breakers earned a win on Day 1 where three pointers were needed, but with limited player options. Ray Allen, utilized in 66% of lineups stole the show as he shot 4 of 8 from outside, which earned him the Fast Break Stud of the Day award. If he was your captain, his total jumped to 6 of 12 from outside.
If, however, you had Michael Redd in your lineup, his 0 for 6 from outside likely spelled doom and contributed to your loss. With his poor form, he earned the Fast Break Dud of the Day award.

Upcoming Fast Break Objectives:

2x: OREB, PTS, BLK
1x: 3PM, 3PA, AST-TO, FGM, FGA, AST, STL
Tomorrow Objective(s): 55 Rebounds & 10 Offensive Rebounds (11.0 REB & 2.0 OREB)
Considerations:
Golden State has the most games remaining (8)
New York has the least remaining games (6)
There are only two (2) teams in action on Day 4, so set this lineup first to avoid finding yourself in a tough spot
Day 11 & 13 also have 10 or less teams in action, so lineup options are more limited
Day 3 (tomorrow), 5, & 10 have 20 or more teams in action, so there is more flexibility with your lineup options
The always volatile & challenging AST-TO takes place on Day 13
Statistical Approach:
Top players in assists & steals according to Rotowire & NBA.com, which is available in the table(s) below. Overall rank is based on daily projections, last 10 (when available), and season averages, 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+ members, all active player stats are available in the provided data file. Omission of certain players would be based on injuries at the time of data pull.
