Shantay Andrade Legans (born July 30, 1981) is an American college basketball coach who is currently men's basketball head coach at Portland. Legans grew up in Goleta, California and played college basketball at California and Fresno State. He briefly played professional basketball in the Netherlands before beginning a coaching career.

From 2007 to 2009, Legans was an assistant coach at the Laguna Blanca School. Legans then was an assistant coach at Eastern Washington under head coaches Kirk Earlywine and Jim Hayford during a period where Eastern Washington turned around from a losing program to one of the top teams in the Big Sky Conference. Eastern Washington promoted Legans to head coach in 2017 after Hayford resigned for another job. As head coach, Legans led Eastern Washington to a Big Sky regular season title in 2020 and conference tournament title in 2021; he was the 2020 Big Sky Coach of the Year in men's basketball. On March 22, 2021, it was confirmed that Legans would leave Eastern Washington for the head coaching position at Portland.
