Because it's too hard to crumple a sheet of paper into a cube.

Big brain moment

IANAL, but I think it’s because balls are fun to play with.

When I'm building a fire I crumple the newspaper into a ball because it increases the surface area and density of the fuel, so it will burn longer and hopefully catch the wood on fire

The human hand naturally curves into a circular shape when closed.
Squeezing anything in a hand will naturally form a ball shape. This will occur with anything, but paper is more readily available and crumples easily.

Because throwing a paper ball into the bin( or the near floor) is far easier than a flat piece of paper.
