The typescript for Lucida Bright OT doesn’t set a font (or applies the 
smallcaps feature) to the \sc font switch.

To get small capitals you can now activate the "smcp" or "c2sc" features 
or you create your own typeface (the \definefontfamily command always 
sets a font for the \sc switch).

\definefontfamily[lucidaopentype][rm][Lucida Bright OT]
\definefontfamily[lucidaopentype][ss][Lucida Sans OT]
\definefontfamily[lucidaopentype][tt][Lucida Sans Typewriter OT]
\definefontfamily[lucidaopentype][mm][Lucida Bright Math OT]

\setupbodyfont[lucidaopentype]

\starttext

{\rm\tf Upright, \it Italic, \bf Bold, \bi BoldItalic and \sc SmallCaps}

{\ss\tf Upright, \it Italic, \bf Bold, \bi BoldItalic and \sc SmallCaps}

{\tt\tf Upright, \it Italic, \bf Bold, \bi BoldItalic and \sc SmallCaps}

\stoptext
