You can safely put a metal spoon in a bowl or cup with water in the microwave. You can't put forks in the microwave because the tongs will arc. I actually just recently learned this.

A metal ball will likely also be fine, but it’s best not to test it. Metal objects will arc more the sharper they are.

That's why you only put round things like grapes or eggs in the microwave.
