Just to straighten out your perception of the relative roles of Stewart and Tuck, in their senior years 22% of Stewart' shots were from 3 compared to 25% of Tuck's 3pt shots. So using your measure Tuck was more of a perimeter player. And just for comparison, in Stewart's last 2 years of high school basketball she took a total of about 25 3 pt shots. In her last 2 years at UConn she attempted 204 3 pt shots. Stewart's perimeter game didn't really emerge until after she came to Storrs.

I'm not at all  aware of ONO's current skill set but as in the case of Stewart, high school stats often have no bearing on college stats.  I wouldn't say that any player with size would be called a perimeter player at UConn but UConn in recent years has had a number of players who were primarily inside scorers in high school and who developed into players who were also very effective out on the perimeter. And by "out on the perimeter I mean the entire perimeter, not just the high post.
