Fast Break Run 9 | Day 6
Pick 5 Players who will combine for 100 Points Scored to earn your win.
Overview:
With five days behind us, four days ahead, and a challenging stretch of days where 210 total participants earned wins the past two days (57 on Day 5), the road to seven wins is likely out of reach or hanging on by a thread. Today’s objective is no walk in the park either. Of the over 2,600 participants, only two remain perfect and only 64 have earned four wins. Needless to say, this has been one of the more challenging WNBA Fast Break runs to date.
Today’s Objective:
Fast Break Day 5 requires five (5) players who will score 100 or more points, which means your lineup will need an average of 20.0 PTS per player. With ten teams in action today, your options are broad but the number of high volume scorers are limited. A win will likely rely on a player or two scoring well above their projections and season averages.
Scorers: A’ja Wilson, Kahleah Copper, Napheesa Collier, Arike Ogunbowale, Kelsey Mitchell
Upcoming Objectives:
Tomorrow, Field Goals Made & Free Throws Made will be the objective and there will be eight teams in action.
After today: Points Scored (PTS), Field Goals Made (FGM), Free Throws Made (FTM), Three Pointers Made (3PM), Assists (AST), Rebounds (REB)
Considerations:
Today is Minnesota’s last game this run
There is one day remaining where only two teams are in action (Day 8)
Connecticut plays three days in a row (Day 5-7) including one where they are one of two teams in action
Day 6 requires 100 Points Scored (only 5 players in action have averaged 20.0 points this season)
Minnesota & New York have the least number of games this series (1)
Phoenix & Seattle have the most games remaining (3)
Every other team has two (2) games remaining

Introducing, TOME+:
The daily Fast Break articles will continue with minimal changes, but an additional paid option will be available if you would like access to sortable tables in the daily articles (vs. static images) based on each day’s objective, Witty’s Cheat Sheet, and access to a dedicated Fast Break league with additional prizes (beginning Run 9). This offering will continue to expand based on community requests (ex: full season stats for all players in a sortable table (coming soon)) in order to add value to your membership to TOME+. Membership duration will be tracked also with potential future perks and benefits, but will be dependent upon a variety of factors. Said differently, we have many plans and ideas we’d like to activate upon as we want your patronage to be worth your while, but we cannot make any promises or guarantees. One promise we can make though, is that revenues and gifted moments will be reinvested back into the growth of the Tome Society platform. If you’re so inclined, you can join here.
