Assuming of course they don't buy him out before this season begins of course, because of course that would never happen.

They can't buy him out this summer, so you're correct that would never happen. Only players who were on your roster at the most-recent trade deadline can be bought out during the second buyout window.
There will be two more buyout periods before the expansion draft (June 2020 and June 2021), but as has been mentioned many times before, Lucic's contract is effectively buyout-proof.
