The present technology provides a system and method for assembling a fantasy sports team using augmented reality. The technology employs a fantasy game server in communication with one or more users' electronic devices. The technology uses environmental data provided by the imaging device of the users' electronic devices to generate a real-world depth map, generates a virtual depth map depicting digital images of sports players and/or promotion and other tokens, and blends the virtual depth map with the real-world depth map to generate an augmented reality depth map. The users of the system access the augmented reality depth map through the user interface on their electronic devices to capture the sports players they wish to add to their fantasy sports teams.
