HDMI to Thunderbolt 3

Hi there,

My wife has just started working from home and I want to give her one of my LG UltraFine 27inch displays to use. Although her laptop is an older Mac Pro that only has HDMI / Thunderbolt 2 ports. Is there some adapter that can convert HDMI to Thunderbolt 3? All I can find are cables and adapters for going from Thunderbolt 3 to HDMI.

Thanks in advance.

Thunderbolt 2 to Thunderbolt 3 to HDMI I have a 15" MacBook Pro (2015) running Catalina OS laptop which only has one HDMI port and two Thunderbolt 2 ports. I want to connect two Dell monitors to the laptop. I can use the HDMI port to connect one monitor, my question is what is the best way to connect the second monitor? Does Apple still sell Thunderbolt 2 to HDMI adapters? Or do I have to daisy-chain using a Thunderbolt 2 to Thunderbolt 3 adapter and a Thunderbolt 3 to HDMI adapter (will that even work and if so, what OS do I need)? Thanks!
