Jared Jeffries expects to be traded by the Rockets after he was placed on the inactive list.

Houston made the move in order to add Aaron Brooks back to their roster.

Jeffries has an expiring contract worth $7.4 million.

"Something will happen," Jeffries said. "Whether it happens now or at the trade deadline, I'll just stay ready and in shape. I think if I don't play, at some point I'll get traded and move on.

"The grass isn't always greener. You might go somewhere else and have not as good a situation, not as good a team, not as good a group of guys."

He has also played in nine games this season.
