WNBA Fast Break | WNBA Finals | Day 4
Pick 5 Players who will combine for 5 Three Pointers Made and 5 Free Throws Made to earn your win.
Overview:
Game 1 and Game 3 came down to the wire, but both had different outcomes. In Game 1, Minnesota stole one on New York’s home court. In Game 3, New York returned the favor. As time was winding down with the game tied 77-77, Sabrina Ionescu drilled a logo three pointer to lift the Liberty to a 2-1 lead in the 2024 WNBA Finals. They are now one (1) win away from bringing home their first title in franchise history. Game 4 takes place in Minnesota and the Lynx are hoping to send the series back to New York for the finale.
Should the series go to Game 5 on Sunday, it’ll require 50 Points Scored and 10 Assists for Fast Break. Of the 2,300 currently participants, many have either achieved their 3-win objective or are a win away from getting there.
As a reminder, we are half a week away from the start of the NBA Season which kicks off on October 22nd. There were ten (10) total regular season Fast Break runs for WNBA. Anticipate 18-20 runs for the NBA Season, so the sooner you secure top players in various stat categories (or the most versatile), the more uses you’ll have for those players. TOME+ subscribers now have access to Witty’s Player Targets which identifies the most versatile players in Fast Break. Aren’t a TOME+ subscriber? Don’t worry. We’ll publish top five (5) player targets in these daily articles throughout the season.

Today’s Objective(s):
Fast Break Day 4 requires five (5) players who will sink 5 or more Three Pointers and make 5 or more Free Throws, which means your lineup will need to average 1.0 or more 3PM and 1.0 or more FTM per player. There is a correlation between these two objectives, so you’ll have a few player options who can get you both stats. The challenge is whether you have enough players remaining. Fortunately, a handful of players could get you across the finish.
Little of Both: Sabrina Ionescu
Outside Snipers: Sabrina Ionescu, Kayla McBride, Bridget Carleton, Leonie Fiebich, Jonquel Jones, Breanna Stewart, Betnijah Laney-Hamilton
Charity Stripers: Breanna Stewart, Kayla McBride, Napheesa Collier, Sabrina Ionescu, Jonquel Jones, Betnijah Laney-Hamilton, Alanna Smith, Courtney Williams
