Fast Break Run 8 | Day 7
Pick 5 Players who will combine for 60 Points Scored and 5 Free Throws Made to earn your win.
Overview:
Including today, there are only four days left in WNBA Fast Break Run 8, which means you’ll need to have at least three (3) wins to have a chance at the top reward. There are close to 2,700 total participants and only 28 who are a perfect 6 of 6, which is impressive. You could have zero wins so far and still have a chance at the mid tier reward, so keep your eye on whichever prize you can reach. Immediately after Run 8 concludes, WNBA Fast Break Run 9 begins so plan accordingly.
TOME+ subscribers should anticipate the next Witty’s Cheat Sheet (for Run 9) in the next couple days, which will outline the WNBA game schedule, objectives for each day, and top players in action based on the objective.
Today’s Objective:
Fast Break Day 6 requires five (5) players who will accumulate 60 or more Points Scored and 5 or more Free Throws Made, which means your lineup will need an average of 12.0 Points Scored and 1.0 FTM per player. Considering the limited number of players available and even though these two stats are often correlated, you will need at least a couple of the top options to achieve today’s targets. This may prove challenging based on which players you have remaining.
Tier 1: Breanna Stewart, Arike Ogunbowale, Sabrina Ionescu, Satou Sabally, Natasha Howard
Tier 2: Jonquel Jones, Maddy Siegrist
Tier 3: Teira McCowan
Based on today’s projections, having three from Tier 1 will likely get you over the threshold. Having two from Tier 1 plus three capable others could also get you there. Having only one or none will be challenging unless someone far exceeds their projections and season averages. Depending on your lineup limitations, it could be an easy day or one that is out of reach.
Upcoming Objectives:
Tomorrow, Assists & Rebounds will be the objectives and there will be eight teams in action.
Remaining objectives after today:
Field Goals Made (FGM), Three Pointers Made (3PM), Assists (AST), Rebounds (REB), Free Throws Made (FTM)
Considerations:
Seattle has no games remaining for the rest of Run 8
Atlanta, Indiana, Phoenix, & Washington only have one (1) game remaining
The other seven (7) teams have two (2) games remaining
Day 7-10 Stretch: Three of the last four games will have 4 or less teams in action
Statistical Approach:
Top players in projected Points Scored & Free Throws Made according to Rotowire, which is available in the table below.
Rewards:
Daily Reward: Top 50 each day will receive a Quick Rip pack
Milestone Reward: Reach 1, 4, or 7 wins and each tier earns you a pack
Run Reward: Place in the top 10 and earn a WNBA Metallic Gold LE pack

WNBA Run 8 Fast Break Grid
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.
Aren’t able to pay a monthly fee? Currently, there is a promotion available for a month’s subscription in exchange for five (5) WNBA moments sent to TS: TomeSociety.
