How much movement can the sphere be forced to move with Telekinesis from an opposing Sorcerer. The answer is None I am told how do you see it playing out?
Let's see. Yeah I would argue that the sphere of annihilation isnt an object, it doesn't have mass. Plus it says it is stationary unless controlled. That could loosely mean it is imovable by other means.
I'm going to echo the same sentiment, especially due to the first line of the spell:
This 2-foot-diameter black Sphere is a hole in the multiverse, hovering in space and stabilized by a magical field surrounding it.
You're going to be incapable of moving something that exists as part of the multiverse. It would be the equivalent to asking if you could use Telekinesis to move the hole in a paper bag from one side to the other. I would also contend that the Sphere of Annihilation is a much more powerful spell which means Telekinesis wouldn't be powerful enough to affect it anyhow, much like Light doesn't work on Darkness.
1- A Sphere of Annihilation is uncontrolled by default, requiring a successful DC 25 Arcana check to gain control, so I think such a check would be required even if you could use Telekinesis (perhaps at best reducing the DC by 5, but not likely).
2- Telekinesis can work on creatures or objects, both of which are physically existing things that can be damaged. A Sphere of Annihilation is an absence of anything, and it cannot be damaged, so I would say it likely could not be affected by Telekinesis anyway.
So all told, I would say you cannot move a Sphere of Annihilation with Telekinesis, nor any other method of moving objects.

Seems the mearls thinks it an object for ENLARGE (increasing its DC). i am apt to believe its unaffected due to the low power of TK.
