You can use Sidecar wirelessly. This is the usual way.

But if you need to keep your iPad charged during use, connect it directly to your Mac with the USB charge cable that came with your iPad.

The above is taken from:

Use an iPad as a second display for a Mac - Apple Support

With Sidecar, you can use your iPad as a second display for your Mac.

I don't want wireless.

You don't have to. Just read the Apple link I gave you and, indeed, you can use this facility by direct USB connection.

The link gives you all the conditions you need to meet for Sidecar; then goes on to tell you the various ways this can be achieved. It's all there - everything you need to know.

Please read the link
