Fusion 360 2.0.11415 on Windows 10

New Design

Create Offset Plane, XY at 50mm

Create Point from 3 planes, select new plane1 and XZ, YZ planes

Create a Sphere at Origin

Edit existing sphere feature, try to change the point to new point1 - this doesn't work, I can't select the new point either on design or in component list.

You will find Primitives very difficult to move or reorient.  Use the Revolve command on a half of a circle to create your sphere and you will find it a lot easier to work with.

If you really want to use the Sphere Primitive, you can use two methods to relocate it.  Take a look at the Screencast.

You will better off using a sketch based sphere.
