Connect two LG 5K displays to MacBook Pro

I have a MacBook Pro 2019 and want to connect two LG 5K displays with thunderbolt 3 cables. I know to connect one to each side of my MacBook Pro but do I connect to the power usb-c port on each display?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.1

You Mac will never overcharge.

If there is more than one power supply to the Mac it will choose which one to use.

Not an issue.
