var arr = Array.from({length:10000}, (v, i) => ({name: i, assigned: Math.random() < 0.5}));

Tests:

flatMap
arr.flatMap((o) => (o.assigned ? [o.name] : []));
reduce with push
arr.reduce((a, o) => (o.assigned && a.push(o.name), a), [])
loop with push
{ const a = []; for (const o of arr) if (o.assigned) a.push(o.name); }
