It’s with emotion

Is it natural English to say “with emotion that”?


It's with a lot of emotion that I retire from basketball, it was an incredible journey.

Thank you

Yes, that aspect is OK. The sentence as a whole is incorrect, being a comma splice (incorrect use of a comma to join independent statements).

"with emotion that" is not a constituent of that sentence. The grouping is "with a lot of emotion", and it's embedded in a cleft
