The pregnant wife of a former Nuggets star forward said a shark attacked her.

Eleonora Boi, the wife of former Denver forward Danilo Gallinari, said she was bitten by a baby shark and had to undergo surgery for her leg, according to an Aug. 1 post on Instagram.

“I never thought I could get attacked by a shark,” Boi writes in a translation of her Instagram post, “and I was near the shore and on a super crowded beach.”

She added that her and her baby are fine and recovering.

But “regarding the shark, you’ll hear from my lawyers soon,” she writes in the post.
