He's not under contract for next season. He's currently in season and left to do the Hoop Summit. He can leave for the NBA with no buyout/agreement necessary.

If Sarr does declare, where would he likely project in the draft?
No idea. Could be pretty high. He measured super well at the Hoop Summit and he's been playing well. Could go lottery I guess?
Going to guess his team punishes him for leaving to Hoop Summit and they probably wont play him much for the rest of the season, if at all.
It's looking like the Twolves pick is going to come in at 20-23, and it will depend on coin-flips.
Unless someone unexpected falls, I'd be looking at Fleming or one of the European prospects--e.g., Essengue, Beringer, de Larrea or Sarr (whom I think should enter the draft). I'd also take a look at Nolan Traore, in case he's there. Jazz should also probably look at Hugo Gonzalez.
I'm not a Penda guy or a Demin guy, but one or both of those guys will probably be available in that range.

2nd best odds and second lottery pick without a doubt
I think he would probably be above Hugo. He plays in the same competitions, but he's shown more flashes....That's not saying much, however, because Hugo hasn't really shown any flashes. Both guys have very little game time this year, but Sarr did recently have 4 double digit scoring games in a row across ACB and Euroleague.
I feel like he will only stay in this draft if he has a first round guarantee, otherwise he will be playing for Illinois. I think he will end up getting that guarantee with a good Hoop Summit and so many teams with multiple picks in the late first round.
I'm calculating that if the Jazz win tomorrow, their odds of this turning into a top four pick are about 1 in 218 (0.46%) -- based on a rough estimate of 45% chance of Wolves losing first play-in game, and 30% chance of losing second play-in game. (Of course your scenario--a Jazz win--also means that pick has around a 13% chance of turning into the 14th pick)

So if the Wiz and the Jazz both get the same record at the end, will there be a tie breaker for 1 and 2?
Coin toss will be used to determine their pick order, and its only applied if neither one wins in the lottery (meaning they pick at 5 and 6).
