Sean Singletary is happy to be in Phoenix after being traded twice already since being drafted out of Virginia in June, according to Arizona Republic.

"It's kind of surreal," Singletary said. "I haven't been on an elite team since I was 12."

The Kings took Singletary with the 42nd pick in the draft and then traded him to the Rockets in the Ron Artest deal.

"All I can do now is bring energy and play smart basketball. Hopefully, things will work out for me," Singletary said. "I know it's going to be an uphill battle. I've always been able to find a way."

"You're only a rookie once," he added. "I want to learn from all these guys and incorporate it into my game. I'm going to take my time but work with a sense of urgency, too. I'm going to come and give it all I've got."
