TAMPA, Fla. – USL League One today announced the Team of the Week for Week 4 of the 2025 regular season, with Spokane Velocity FC defender Lucky Opara named Player of the Week presented by Konami eFootball with a pair of assists in Spokane's record-breaking victory in Greenville.

Opara played a key role in helping Spokane down Greenville Triumph SC, 4-0, recording a pair of assists on Luis Gil's first-half brace before winning a penalty in the second half.
