Would a volcano shoot lava balls?

In some cases yes. It depends on the amount of gasses present in the magma. When magma has lots of gasses trapped inside of it, the explosive release of those gasses can cause large masses of magma to fly into the air. However, most volcanic eruptions throw solid rock and dust more then molten lava, while the lava bubbles out of the volcano and flows down the side rather then flying though the air.
