BOSTON — Jordi Fernández says the rebuilding Nets can’t let all these losses turn them into losers, that tasting victory has them wanting more.

On Friday, the Nets got a huge one, an impressive 113-105 win over the Celtics before a raucous green-clad sellout crowd of 19,156 at TD Garden.

Michael Porter Jr. poured in 16 of his game-high 33 points in the fourth quarter. Center Nic Claxton added his first triple-double (18 points, 12 assists and 11 rebounds) and rookie Egor Dëmin chipped in 12 points, six boards and five assists.
